    It's where the eccentric adjustment is made for your alignment.

    There should be two " limiting " tabs, some shops bend one flat to get more caster out of stock UCA's

    like this

    Here is what I did for my 285's when I had them.
    Are you rolling 3" of lift?

    You may be getting more rub on the drivers side because of something as simple as a bit of taco lean? Less lift = more potential to rub. Measure from ground to fender through the center of the hub and see if the numbers are equal.

    Hey Toyo Freak, your truck looks great. You mentioned that you were running the 5100's in the front, what did you do to lift the rear?
