Traction bars are a must on any truck in all honesty. It allows the truck to shift a lot nicer, and keeps the rear end more stable. I'll never remove mine or run a truck without them. My truck needless to say is way more fun to drive and rides a hell of a lot better.
Calvert Racing, Inc.
By cleverly controlling the position of the rear axle, traction bars significantly reduce the bounce, keeping the rear suspension from excessive movement. This results in a smoother, safer, and more controlled ride, improving the driving experience substantially.
In addition to improving consistent 60-foot times, Calvert Racing's patented CalTracs eliminate axle rotation AND improve traction, especially on hard acceleration.
The pivot at the front leaf eyelet then forces the pin riding on top of the springs downward into the spring pack itself. This downward force of the pin on the leaf springs causes down force on the entire axle assembly and pushes your tires down onto the pavement/dirt.
We suggest a pinion angle to be between -2 to -4 degrees when used with CalTracs.
The harder you're on the throttle, the harder the downward force on your tires. While many believe that CalTracs are strictly for drag racing applications, a properly adjusted CalTracs setup could improve traction for just about any application, including heavy towing, off-roading, even daily driving.
Split Mono Leaf Spring Design & Construction Parabolic leaf springs are an evolution of a conventional taper leaf spring. Here (in the case of a Calvert spring), the rear segment leaf is thicker at one end, and then it tapers from the middle to the end, where it is thinner.
