    Hey guys I need a little advice. I am looking at Cal Tracs, and am not sure which set up I need. Two hole or one hole? I also have a brand new set of leaf springs to go with it. awaiting your responses:huh:

    I bought the 2 hole., more adjustment. So far with very little playing around, they make a huge difference.

    I'm planning on getting a set of these in the spring and replacing the old air shocks the P/O put on.

    BIG difference. May as well get the two hole for the extra adjustments, as Dave said.

    It's a weird feeling to floor it, and feel the car lift, not sink.

    Yes! That first time I nailed it was very odd feeling. In a good way.

    I was actually sorta scared that I may have broken something since the car behaved so differently.

    I agree, get the two hole. I absolutely loved mine. Money well spent.
