Caltracs Vs. Sway bars
 
I've been thinking between the two which would be more beneficial for the rear end. I know traction isnt a huge problem for me but I do have some problems especially cornering. Would Cal-Tracs help with cornering as well as traction or would both Cal-Tracs and a sway bar be necessary? Im lookin to get the best of traction and cornering

I would look into a sway bar first its alot cheaper and people have had great results

Both, sway bar for cornering, the tracs for traction......

haha, good advice fellas, I appreciate it. I've got some pretty bad wheel hop cornering.. I need coils on the front as well, but the rear is scary. I had some fun in the rain last night too, haha. Thanks for the advice, sway bar is definitely on the list now :thumb:

I have the hotchkis sway bar kit both front and rear. Def helped cornering, but i'm still putting on caltracs (sitting in my room) to take care of the wheel hop. I'll keep you posted how they work together. I should be putting them in within the next 2 weeks.

I've got an Addco rear sway bar and I like it. The instructions were crap but it's pretty self explanatory once you see all the parts laid out. The kit comes with 2 pairs of end links (a shorter pair and a longer pair). The shorter end links are for trucks that have been lowered 4" or more in the rear.
