Just a couple of pics with the new springs and caltracs installed.

Clearly, you understand how the Cal Tracks are meant to work using those springs. Looks good!
 
That is awesome, I too just installed that package last night. Looks great! I'm going to have to modify my 3" TTI tailpipes a little as they now interfere with the rear leaf segment. The Caltrac spring eye at rear is rolled downward, rather than upward like a stock spring. This along with my offset hanger kit has caused interference.

I can take no credit for the install. All I have done is pick the parts I think will work best for my car. My long time friend and personal hotrod mechanic Tom Ward gets all the credit for every upgrade to the duster thus far.

cpearce; I can see how the 3" tail pipe would interfere. I am using the flowmaster mandrel bent 2.5 pipes on mine and between the spring and gas tank there isn't much wiggle room.
 
Wow, ok. Mine are the standard height Caltrac setup. My car sits very flat with them
