    Caught that also.. I think he's saying you can use Dot 4 in Dot 3 systems, but not the other way around.

    I'm only forgiving you because you're also named James, and we can't have James on James problems in 2017.

    hey guys. I recently put on JBA uca's, and the shop i took it to said that it added a bunch of caster. so much so that they had to adjust my LCA's in order to get everything aligned. car drives straight and feels better than before, but i am getting a TON more rubbing because of the LCA adjustment. is my only option to do the cab mount chop? Im running 265/70/17 duratracs with the newer trd rims and bilstein 5100s.

    Ive had the 5100s on for about 40k now and i was looking around at getting some new components, so if there are a set of coilovers or something that would help my rubbing issue id also look into that.

    i never got a spec sheet after the alignment, i probably should have asked for it but it was late and i was tired already. ill see if i can call them and ask. i do know that the worst of the rubbing is when i am reversing with the steering wheel full lock counter clockwise. its definitely worse when i turn to the left.

    265/70/17 duratracs. i just called the shop that installed the uca's. they take it to a different alignment shop, so they said they'll get back to me with the spec sheet.

    i have a feeling it also has to do with the rims i just put on. My wheels used to rub very little with the stock rims, but when i put these new ones on, along with new tires, it definitely rubbed more.

    I've got a gnarly vibe with rpms/throttle. It basically stops when I coast. Gonna check u joints. Anything else I need to look at?
