Thanks I have the stock-height CalTrac monos on my Challenger; +1" would have been too high since I was trying to get away from the jacked-up SS stance it had before. Also, I ended up w/ their 35" A-body rear segments at Calvert's recommendation based on the angle of my rear shackles and clearance between the rear spring eye and the rear valance. 8423902-Mopig_LF.jpg (147 downloads) Last edited by BradH; 02/09/15 01:52 PM.

The -1 sat way too low on my car...the "stock height" is what I traded them in for and it sat perfect.
