Will do. I'm hoping to see them this afternoon but it will more than likely be Monday. I'll post pics. Plan on racing next weekend so I should have some results as well.

What you trying to catch up with me ;-)

I miss my truck, I hope I get my transmission soon. After this new transmission is in I'll be "done" for a while, or until the engine lets go. I want to pay off my the F-250 I just bought pretty quickly.

Darn right I am. Heck I'd be happy to see 12.9 on my slip. And like you I'm done for a while or if the engine pops. I'm gonna install the gears over the holidays so my final run this season will be with the 3.55's and traction bars. Headed to Jacksonville NC Saturday the 10th for some racing. Wish me luck.

Thats my goal, 12 second time slip on a extended cab with all the audio and interior upgrades. I plan to do it with less boost more supporting mods but well see how it goes.

Well no luck on the traction bars. They didn't fit at all. Gonna call Caltrac's tomorrow and see what else they've got.

Just build your own long bars.

Thought about that too. I would think it would be cheaper. I don't weld so I would have to have someone do it.

The calverts are made to keep the leaf spring from wrapping I heard the long bars will still let wrapping to occur
