Predictions on if this will rub?

You also have a high clearance bumper. I predict I'll be rubbing just a tad on the front fender liner

 

Even before then.
Still 35’s.

 

I’m not assuming anything? Not sure what that was directed at.

 

I think you're just confused on how caster works and how JBA plays into that.

Caster is where your upper and lower ball joints are in relation to one another. Aftermarket UCA's add caster by moving the ball joint rearward. This aids in drivability but not in tire clearance.

Maxing out the LCA for caster (pushing it forward) is one thing but your number is only so high because of the JBA moving the upper balljoint rearward as well.

This goes back to what was stated earlier though that aftermarket UCA's are actually a hindrance to clearance at the firewall.

 

35s, spacers, no cmc and didn't rub at all? You're probably like the .01% here.

 

No i have cmc.

 

Well there you go. OP doesn't have a CMC. Not an apples to apples comparison.

 

"I don't rub......I also trimmed stuff out of the way so I don't rub."

 

Yeah hes gonna need it.

 

Thanks anyways fellas. Sometimes I forget that dudes treat this forum as an outlet for their dick measuring contests lol.. Cheers!

 

I didn’t see any dick measuring going on. A pretty decent discussion actually considering the questions posed.

 

Lol. Im getting my 265/70r17 falken wildpeaks put on my rims. Rims are -12 offset and 8.5 inches wide. If i got time this weekend I'll see how they fit. Anyway i will post my findings after i put them on. I've asked this question before and never got a real answer either. Each truck is different though. So i guess there IS no real answer.

 

So i installed my wheels today. I'll have to run the truck without mudflaps during the summer months and trim a little plastic. Other then that should be good. I cannot wait to put them on and leave them on!

 

I just tried the front just to see where I'm at.

 

First of all, Your truck looks so cool! I was wondering if you wouldn't mind posting a close up picture of the detail where you trimmed the fender to meet the bumper? Not thrilled how mine turned out. I need to fix it ASAP! Thanks.

 

lol funny you mention that.. as I’m not satisfied with my cuts either since i did it myself.. one side is higher than the other.

 

Thanks a lot. What did you use as the "gasket" or whatever you call the black thing covering up the cut. I really need to figure this out. Also, I like the skid plate that continues under your bumper. I feel like mine ends too soon and there is too much exposed. Thanks Man!

 

Thanks so much!
