Okay guys, I'm pretty sure I'm buying Cal-tracs to see if I can get rid of spring-wrap and get some traction. I'm looking for some input from those who have them, mostly wanna hear how happy/unhappy you are with the setup. I'm also considering removing my overload leaf for more weight transfer. What does everybody suggest?
I'm planning on getting slicks and launching in 2 wheel drive. Yes, the truck is daily driven also.

My OLS is removed along with the cal tracs. It will help at the track, but not so much on the street. I can still blow the tires off with them, but just not as far as i could without them..

2in lowering shackles and 2in hangers, (no flip kit) no load springs so the truck will tranfer the weight better. My traction bars bolt to the u bolts.. On a drag radial its nasty on the street or strip.. Several of my buddies run this setup. I was also running this setup on my single cab and it run low 11s.
