CalTracks - Rear Leaf Spring Question

All,
Thanks, seems like there is a mixed bunch of opinions and views. Again, really not interested in the MP springs other than the price.

Racerjoe, yes, I have talked with ESPO and Bergman and Calvert, they all say the same thing, you will get axle wrap. To me this is a disclaimer and a CYA thing, and I get it. Your insight sounds from experience, and I appreciate that, thank you.

I have used ESPOs (70 Cuda w/470 and Gen III), Caltracks (71 BB auto) and Hotchkis (68 GTX BB/4 speed) in the past, all have done well. But I have not used only the Caltracks without the bars.

Right now I am leaning more towards ESPO's. They have done well for me in the past, and they are about $330 shipped. A tad more than the MP's (about $40), but no stink bug and crazy stiff ride, and unfortunately not a drop in 30 lbs of weight or newer technology.

Still pondering
