The nice thing about the MoPar leaf springs, was they were designed with a short, stiff front section, ahead of the center bolt, with long section behind, which kinda acted like a built in traction bar. That said, most modern Stock Eliminator MoPars are now using the Calvert monoleaf springs with Cal Tracs. Concerning your Fairlane, does it still have the factory rubber "ISO clamp" setup that has rubber pads between the housing spring perches and leaf springs, with a metal surrounding them? If so, I would remove that stuff, it was meant for a softer, smother ride, but are not a good thing for performance. I am having a similar situation with my 428 CJ 4 speed 59 Ford 2 door sedan, it will wheel hop pretty badly with street tires, even with new stock style leaf springs, and a set of Lakewood "slapper" bars. In both our cases, I believe the stock type springs are too soft and "flexy" on hard acceleration, so I am going to try some clamps on the front section of the leaf springs, and see if that helps. Not sure if gas shocks are as good as an old style hydraulic shock for this style of driving. I can say that this is the first time that I have heard of a car wheel hopping with a set of CalTracs, although I believe that they are designed for use with the Calvert mono leaf springs. But I have no personal experience with Cal Tracs. On my 59, at the dragstrip, it will wheel hop badly with the street tires, (275/60R15 BF G T/A radials) as well, but not with a set of drag slicks, which I assume is due to the thinner sidewalls and lower air pressures, which better absorbs the impact of sudden throttle, but that is more of a crutch, and obviously not a solution for your street only car. Have you tried lower tire pressures, to see if that helps at all?
