CalTrac for 67 R/T

My R/t is sagging in the rear...old girl is now over 45 and I was interested in a caltrac system,springs,traction bars,shocks. The car has frame extenders and I feel with the caltrac, I will get excellent traction/launch and can raise the rearend a bit for a better look.

Has anyone installed this?
Is it totally bolt in or some brackets welded/moved ?
Satisfaction rating ?

Thanks in advance to all

Cal tracs, mono springs and shocks all bolt right in if your not moving springs inboard!
Don't go with to stiff a mono spring.

You may want to replace the spring perches on your axle and at the very least box in the end of the present spring perches for more strength.

What do you mean by frame extenders??

frame extenders...connection between front and rear frame

I installed the full Calvert system in my '67 last year. bolts right in in a couple of hours, tops. Pretty easy stuff, and a great upgrade. I picked up a full tenth in my 60' and 3 tenths in 1320 over my previous setup (stock springs with a set of South Side lift bars. If I had it to do over, I'd have gone with the +1" springs. The stock ht. springs are indeed stock ht, which is a little low on these cars.

I agree about the height..I was going with the 1+ and thanks...I did figure the suspension upgrade would improve the times on a slightly better than stock motor and figuring alternatives,I believe the cost is worth it. When I go to the big motor I won't have to worry about the suspension

any source recommendations ? nice car

Buy direct from Calvert Racing. Sometimes John himself even answers the phone. I ask for Travis otherwise.
