ill be installing some cal tracs soon , i have mcgoofy hangers and shackles but not on the lowest setting, i may switch to the lower setting however .

just wondering if anyone has installed cal tracs with mcgoofy hangers and if you have any advice or tips on what you did?

 

not mcgoofy's lol...
but this is what i had to do to my belltech ones.

 

cool thanks doi you have any before pics? also do you have a pic of what they look like now?

 

I have the McGauughys hangers on mine. Do not put the hangers on the lowest setting or the Caltracs will bind up, and you will have to notch the hanger for the bolt on the caltrac.

If you have it on the bottom hole of the hanger you wont have any fitment problems at all.

 

so it it possible to use the lowest setting on the mcgoofy hanger? or will i need to cut part of the hanger off to allow motion of the cal trac?

any pics thunderwagon?

 

You can use the upper hole setting, but as stated you need to either modify the hanger or the bolt.

 

It is possible, but I wouldnt do it. I had my overload spring hit the cal trac bar a few times while it was on the lowest setting, not to mention if you put the hangers and shackles on the lowest setting the rear of the truck will be 1 -1.5 inches lower than the front. I have my shackles and hangers on the top setting and have mabey one inch of rake, and it looks good that way in my opinion.

 

ok so i may jut keep it in the lower hole on the hanger , will any modification need to be made or no?

 

Not if you leave it in the lower hole.

 

that looks familiar

get rid of the overload with cal-tracs IMO.
