  • In this video, we are installing Calvert CALTRACS traction bars to our 1985 C10 Chevy Squarebody. The Calvert kit part number is 3204. This is the first appearance of this sleeper truck on the channel. Looking forward to sharing a full walk around video in the future as well as build breakdown.

    I'd love to take a gander at that 305... If nothing else, help you put the plug wires back on.

    Can you put these on a truck with a c notch? Truck is crazy low just don’t know if I can clear them?

    Cool Videos, What transmission is in the '85? Also what shifter is being used?

    • @BestDamnShopAround
      @BestDamnShopAround  Год назад +1

      T56 from a 97 trans am with a mid-shift conversion from SST. Shifter is the longest Hurst shifter they make that I modified the angle at the bottom to suit the bench seat.

      Thanks! I have a 1978 GMC. It has the original 3 speed that was converted to floor shift. The shifter sits too far back. Can't slide the seat forward...LOL.

    Year later, was still able to keep the overload springs on it? Im about to install some on my 83 and trying to figure out if they have to be removed or not for the bars.

    This question isn’t about wheel hop… I’m about to flip kit mine and I’ve read a lot about the pinion angle after the kit that causes bind to the drive shaft? Is that a legit thing? If so, how do you fix that? I know this video would probably solve the problem but with just my basic flip kit and no extra money is there something I could do

    • @BestDamnShopAround
      @BestDamnShopAround  Год назад +2

      With the standard C10 flip kit I've never ran into an issue with pinion angle. Always double-check though! They make thin pinion shims if it is a problem, they can be placed between the leaf spring and the flip kit to adjust the pinion up or down
