Ladderbar or caltrac

Do you want to be able to hook the car in a mud puddle in a rain storm?
If so use ladder bars with a good set of double adjustable coil over shocks

But with Caltracs, you can drive around corners (or mud puddles) without binding up your rear suspension and twisting the body...

I have been using Ladder Bars with Strange single adjustable shocks for years on my car. Sees a lot of street time and has never been in a bind up situation. I never tried CalTracks before so I can't give a comparison . All I can say is My Ladder bar setup works and has worked well for years. Fairly Low 60' times with a lot of tire under the car. Like Cab Said it will hook in the mud.

I had Caltracs and split mono leafs on my Duster with Caltrack shocks and that car would hook great on the street. I've never driven a car that would just hook and go like that. It never spun the tires, just took off. I gave a lot of guys rides in that car and had lots of people tell me that it left harder than their bracket cars. That was my first time working with that combination of parts but it really worked. For a dedicated drag race car I'd probably go with ladder bars but the Caltrac setup sure worked great for a street car. (The 60 lbs of ballast tucked inside the rear bumper probably helped with the launch)
