We're working on getting you some updated info Jay.

BTW, color me interested in some high traction long bars for when I turn up the wick at the track if my caltracs don't cut it.

Some people say it the front spring eye, but that doesn't make sense to me. I've been told that with a caltrac preloaded, the link makes it a rigid bar so the IC is where it crosses with the neutral line. I was told that by a credible source too.

To me on a leaf setup with the caltracs making it a rigid link the IC should be more like the attachment. As far as the long bars go, it seems the IC would be WAY in front of the truck if you follow the same theory. I don't know if that's good or bad though.
