Whether or not you're using caltracs, monoleafs aren't a safe approach especially with some big power. Looks like you're using them to position the axle since you have coil overs, why not sell the caltracs and slap a 4 link on it? Or just run a full leaf pack and caltracs... just my opinion

Whats so Dangerous about them? Ive seen a ton of stupid fast cars with a setup similar to mine without problems.

I was goin to do 4Link, but i wanted to get it on the road. Ill still plan on it later, but not now. Wanted to see what it does.

shorten your mounts, looks like you have the know how to do that. mine closes with room to spare. be careful on going to low because your power steering pump and power steering pump pully can get real close.
