I like how it sits with the overloads out!

Truck looks great! I also recently added Caltracs and removed OL. I'm running the rancho 9000s as well. I like them but not 100% sure about them at the track, I've never had good luck with my suspension still trying to figure it out! This thread is helping me a lot!

They were placed as far forward as possible clamping the bottom overload to the other 4 leafs.

QA1's are hard to beat. My CCSB has been 1.5-1.55 multiple times with all this other setup and qa1s. Others have been 1.4's with QA1's and CalTracs. Hard to beat them.

Since Harbin brought up 60' times, I have been mid to upper 1.6 quite a few times with my truck with nothing more than a set of Rancho shocks set at 9 and spring clamps with the front dropped all the way down (bolts removed). This was on a set of half worn out 265/75 all terrains on factory aluminum wheels.

Dam maybe I need to ditch my Bilsteins. With Bilsteins, long bars, front dropped all the way, and 265/75 on pyos best I could get was 1.77

I cannot for the life of me figure out why the new guys are trying to completely re-invent the wheel here and argue about the things already done. Quite a few of us proved what works and what doesnt, depending on power level. Take where we started and add to it.
