How quick is your ride(I didnt see any times) but
the 9000 and the calverts both come from the same
company.. but if your car is quick ad can 60'hard
then you better look at quality shocks that are at
least single adjustable or double adjustable

Oh yeah ,
I have run the rancho for the last few years . 1.5-1.53 sixty no worries .
New motor - no way Jose. Have Viking rear drag shocks on order for rear .I wish I had not ordered through local distributor .

What kind of power are you making? Very good shocks are well worth the money if you are making real power. I fought traction issues with a good pass with Ranchos being in the 1.3's, I made 3 passes since switching to Santhuff shocks, instantly dropped to 1.16, 1.17, 1.17 dead hooked. No adjustments yet, will throw more power at it, looking for 1.0's this year. Buy good shocks

Anyone have any pictures of their A-bodies with the -1" ride height calvert split monos?

I'm considering going with those springs on my 66 Dart with 315/60/15 tires and am curious what it'd look like.
