don't see how it could have interference since the caltrac mount under the leaf pack and now everything (flipped axle and helper bag) is on top.

Would send an email to caltrac...they seem to be used to deal with custom setup

might have a caltrac-to-road clearance issue. depends how far they hang below the leaf. apples to oranges, but back in my S10 days, you couldnt run caltracs once you were dropped a certain amount because they would drag/hang up on things like speed bumps and on driveway inclines.

Any updates on this? I am wanting to put some sort of traction bar on my 5" flip kit rcsb. I contcated JLP but they said they never tried their traction bars with a flip kit truck and don't know if it will work, the first person I talked to at JLP didn't even know what a flip kit was.
