Anyone Racing a Leaf spring rear with the Alterkation - 06/25/13 04:33 PM
I'm curious as to how anyone is running this combo...you need a lot of front end travel for this to work and it looks like your limited with the Alterkation.....any thoughts

Depends on how much powrt you make how much travel you will need. The more power the less travel you will need. Low powred cars will need more travel than a higher powered car. The alterK does not give you much travel at all, 3-3.5" is about the most I have seen. Lots of cars running well into the 7's on Caltracs, but they limit front end travel.
