Cal Tracs Shock Mount

Chad E532 · 09-15-2008, 02:25 PM

I am finally getting to the point where I am installing the Cal Tracs setup under my 77 Camaro. The shocks on the Camaro are setup with the left side going behind the axle and the right hand in front of the axle. The problem I am having is that the shock body itself is interfering with the bolt that holds the Cal Tracs monoleaf springs together. It is to the point that when I tighten everything up the shock is bound up tight with no room for movement on the lower mounting point. I maybe able to gain some clearance by running a different style bolt on the spring like a button head but I am afraid it will still have interference.
The shocks are Competition Engineering 3-way adjustables.

My questions are has anyone else run into this and should I be worried?
Thanks,
Chad
