I went with the Hotchkis springs (2407c) + Global West cat-5 spherical bushing kit (115SH) + CalTracs (2301).

This should compliment nicely my Hotchkis SFCs, shocks, and my new Ford 9".

I'm still unclear if I will need to add a rear sway. I know that a Panhard bar is not recommened with the cat-5 bushings and that also a Watts link will be no longer needed.


I didn't go with composite leafs because I have too much power for them. I went with the Hotchkis leafs over the GW cat-5 leaf due to the lower spring rate. When drag racing, I'll have the CalTracs setup properly, when road racing I'll have them loose.
