    Hey guys!

    I have a procomp nitro 3/1 lift kit on my 3rd gen, running stock UCAS and have 285s on with a pro comp wheel.

    Issues:
    -I have almost no rubbing issues except when i hit a dip on a full lock when making a right turn. Thats about it, and i can totally live with that. But the leveling kit gives me just enough clearance for regular driving so that i dont rub with 33's.

    -Positive camber: After the leveling kit installation, I had to get an alignment at local shop even after 4 wheel parts put them on. Perhaps it was just an error since it was the last job of the day and the tech just wanted to go home. Now its almost perfect. Drivers side is perfect but passengers side front wheel is a hair off.

    Given these current issues, can i slap on a spydertrax 1.25 spacer with this setup amd stock UCAS? Im playing around with the idea im sorta wishing my stance was a little wider.

    Could make the rubbing worse

    Further out you push the wheel/tire - the more chance of rubbing

    No...
    The wheel/tire follows an arc around SAI(upper ball joint to lower ball joint).
    The further out you go, the bigger the arc and more movement of the wheel/tire, forward and rear.

    You'll rub worse. In regard to the alignment statement, every single truck needs to be aligned after getting a lift put on, so it was nothing to do with the tech.
