Re: Caltracs are here! Installation complete, Yahoo!!
Steve O
Thanks for taking the time to snap and post the pictures. They give a great step by step of the install.
Where did you order them and what is the part number? Are they made for the X and available right off the shelf or did you have to provide specific measurements for your application?
The Caltracs look like they may be even better at controlling axlewrap than my radius rods as they do not appear to have any rubber bushings. My radius rods have rubber bushings that compress under heavy acceleration and still allow for a little bit of axlewrap.
I have the GEN-III radius rods which other than cutting off the factory leaf with the rubber snubber on the stock X springs are an easy bolt on install. You are correct that the front mount on the new GEN-IV radius-rods is welded on.
Thanks,
DFW62
