Caltrac Weirdness

Cruster, thanks for the information, keep it coming!

I was considering the Caltracs versus the Roadmaster active suspension, sounds like for my purposes, the Roadmaster might be the way to go.

Here's the link, saw it on Trucks or one of the other shows Stacey David hosted: http://www.activesuspension.com/home.html There is video and explanation of how it works, install looks pretty straight forward.

Caltracs might be better for your requirements, seems to be the choice for drag racing.

I am looking for spirited drivability and improved handing on road courses (eliminate what body roll I can without making the suspension too stiff). Am also considering a four link setup for the rear, air bag systems are out there, but I would probably replace the airbag shocks with coil springs and shocks, then add air bags for stability and any possible heavy load in the bed.
