    Today is the first day of instruction at CSUS. Over the summer I get used to better parking an essentially no traffic, but now we've got a bunch of 18 year olds suffering from being away from their parents for the first time. And OMG the lines at the eateries is horrendous.

    haha, neither.

    I work for USGS, and we have our regional HQ office on campus. It's a cooperative agreement with the school, where (essentially) we get interns and the school gets to say they have a USGS office. A lot of people also teach some of the geology courses, too, and we consult with professors, etc...

    Skipped ahead, but did you get your numbers from the alignment? I saw you went to the oldschool place, It sounds like an alignment issue. I guess it could be your BS what brand and wheel do you have?

    Im in my third week at my community college. I like starting early and ending early. Classes are meh but it doesnt seem like Ill have much homework. Parking on the other hand...0821180838.jpg
    My school doesn't assign spots. I park as far away as physically possible. To many idiots who drive econoboxes that dont care about said econoboxes or other peoples cars. I'll be glad to make it through college without someone messing up my truck. Oh and the building I have to go to is 50 yards behind the big white one. About a 2-300 yard walk.

    The caster was pushing 3 but might need more if possible. I mean this has been an issue even when I had 31s, rubbing was minor but was there (got rid of it then by just taking a hammer to the pinch weld). I think the wheels have a lot to do with it but I'll have to measure their backspacing since I'm unfamiliar with what the brand is. These 33s are even rubbing inside the rear wheel wells pretty bad when I stuff them but I haven't done any trimming back there yet

    These would be kinda cool to retrofit, maybe useless, but fun

    I have been recommended by some on here that claimed they needed +4º castor. I didn't but guess I was lucky. I think it was @Squeaky Penguin who mentioned it, but can't remember exactly. I brought the castor thing up in the what have you done thread a couple months back. Got a good debate out of it, and plenty of good info. I did remove a decent amount of plastic in the rear wheel well to where my pinch weld is exposed and flattened. I used a grinder and a bfh

    How did I end up in here? What's going on?

    Tire clearance problems - keep cutting and hammering. Zero rubbing here on 295s without tubbing and I'm constantly into my bumps.

    Caster helps you only if it's added via the LCA cams, UCAs make it worse.

    When I was 18, the government had this great lottery program. If you won, you got an all expense paid trip to a southeast Asian country and got to play with all sorts of interesting shit, for a whole year.

    Nothing like coming out to your truck after a long day at work and finding your passenger side taillight with a hole in it. There goes 50 bucks. But I get to review the tape from the 6 cameras that cover the lot. Someone is getting a bill or a boot to the head..monty python style...
