I have Caltracs and will be removing them at some point and going with Stifflers. They do work but there are rattles, creaking, ride quality issues and I think get some slight drive line vibration issues them, that stem from the solid bushings that must be installed on the front of the leaf spring.
Pressing out the bushings also made them a PITA to install, even though I have a press it was much more work then I anticipated.
