    I just installed them on my 69 too. What a difference. Worth every penny.

    Great job that was an awesome idea using the ball joint press tool so you didn't have to take all the leaf spring out of the car. The way you explain things is clear and concise. You deserve way more subscribers. I hope your channel grows. I will continue watching.

    I just installed these on my 73 Camaro. The removal of the spring bushing was the hardest part.

      I 100% agree, The whole job was straight forward, but I had a challenge with the spring bushings even with the tool. Worth it though!!

      @@motornation2578 To make it easier, Make sure you have the appropriate tools to press out/in the spring eye bushings.

      @@motornation2578 Put a large drill bit in your drill motor. Drill holes through the rubber bushing till it falls apart. Cut the metal sleeve with a sawzall or hack saw at the location where there is a gap in the loop of the leaf spring, and twist it out with a pair of pliers.

      @@builtbybo22 I bet it is! Can you say the Caltracs improved your traction of just eliminated thel popping noise? I have a '65 with a Boss 302 non-factory configuration. If she blew tomorrow I would go with a 331 or 348.

    • @builtbybo22
      @builtbybo22  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Cal Tracs 100% made a huge difference, they are literally a necessity for our cars to get traction! My main downfalls now are to much power for how little side wall tire is have. 20” tires with a tiny 30 series tire have little flex! All in all WAY BETTER!

    Great video. So would this set up help for corner stability or more just for straight line no wheel hop?

    • @builtbybo22
      @builtbybo22  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      In my opinion it is strictly to help get traction to the ground and avoid wheel hop. There is really no characteristics in the design that I can see to help with cornering.

    What mufflers are you running in your other videos ot sounds good. I just got my caltracs in the other day. I'm have problems with mine hooking

    • @builtbybo22
      @builtbybo22  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I am running the Thrush Welded series mufflers. They look exactly like Flowmasters on the outside, but sound good with less drone.

      @Built By Bo sounds really good I'm sick of Flowmaster. I'm running the dumps more than anything but Hopefully mine works as good as yours I'm constantly breaking them lose
