Intro to fitting 35s (< 3" Lifts for those that wheel and love alignments)

Most likely your rack bushings. Pull and replace with Poly. I havent had issues since.

 

I’m curious how 16x8 0 offset would pan out with TC UCAs. Just flipped through all 83 pages of this post from over the last three years or so and some say 0 offset 16x8s are ok(4.5 bs), others 4.0 bs, others that 3.5 bs is golden. Little confusing
I’m hoping to pull the trigger on 16x8 SCS F5s with the intention of fitting 35s with the correct offset to minimize upper well and fender trimming much like the OP, trying to avoid just “making then work”. Those wheels are limited to 4.5 or 3.5 bs. I may just get the 4.5 and run spacers as needed but was hoping to avoid that.

 

Can't help you there. Unfortunately every uca has a different shape and geometry which is why there are so many questions about each combination. High Caster UCA's are typically your enemy when going big tires and trying to limit the amount of "work" it takes to get them to clear.

 

I just moved from 265/75-16 & JBA to 285/75-16 & SPC with CMC. Wheels are -10 offset. Been trying to keep trimming down to a minimum but gotta get back under and do some more LCA adjusting after reading through this thread. I originally had the LCA's maxed out with the JBA's although not anymore and running in the SPC "D" ball joint position. Gonna try the "E" position with lowers moved forward.

 

With spc’s make sure your lca cams look like this. And then do all the other adjustments up top.

 

Ready for alignment tomorrow. Bottoms adjusted and top spun 1 notch fwd to "E".

 

What kind of voodoo is this?? I BARELY got my 33 to fit and it rubs the crap out of my diff. I had to move my brake line because the spare hit it.

 

My shit rubs but it’s fine.

 

I relocated the spare tire hoist reward. My 33 spare has plenty of clearance. Fitting a 35 will be next.

Look here for some info https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-fit-larger-spare-tire-and-axle-dump-exhaust.605837/

 

Thanks

 

When you get a 35, moving the spare tire hoist makes no difference. Your up against the hangers at that point.

 

Do you have a set that you recommend?

 

I’m thinking of just keeping my 33 spare when I get 35s. I have plugs and a sidewall patch kit also.

Anyone running camburg uniball UCAs with 35s?
I’m wondering if they allow the tire to be push forward enough to make 35s fit “easier”

it almost time to rebuild them but I was wondering if I should rebuild them or get spc ucas since they seem like the most popular option

 

they do opposite. they push tire back

 

Really? so all the tubular ucas do the same? The design seems similar

 

Yes.

 

they are designed with added castor for better drivability with over 2" of lift. people use the spc arms because it gives ability to align the truck with the lca cams maxed out and wheel as far forward as possible.

 

Thank you! I learned something new today.
