Supers and a snubber at the moment but maybe when the car gets back on the road I will use caltracs but I am a little concerned about loosing ride height on the rear after hearing that you could loose a couple of inches :(

Adjustable pinion snubber.
Leaf springs made to my own spec. Equal spring rate each side rated 30% over stock HD 440/426 springs but passenger side front eye mounted lower. 3/4-inch anti-roll bar.

Asking about my rear end - I'm appalled!!

9" Ford at the rear therefore pinion snubber does not fit (so I understand?) Currently using Standard leaf & Slapper Bars (Slapper bars have improved things!) Changing leaves out to 1" over stock Mono-leafs when thay arrive from Wil, and will see how we go with the slappers.

Can I ask, what set up do you have & what rear gears & slick sizes are you using - r u hooking up ok?

I'm running std springs with extended shackles, towing assistors and a pinion snubber. I would also like an anti sway bar. Can't see the point of putting anything heavier on the satellite as its only a 318.
