    More off road or pavement. And more rocks or loose dirt?

    Max caster - yes!! Not sure if it’ll get it off the pinch weld. Prob bust out the BFH.

    Also toe has nothing to do with camber/caster. Adjusting it will not affect the others.

    The more I think about it the more I just want to pound the pinch weld and be done with it. I'm just afraid of it leaking after I pound the weld.

    If your worries about leaks after, rubber spray it.

    I still have 265-75-16 bfgs on mine I haven't beat anything in yet. I just about took the paint off both side of mine through the brush. I can't wait to do some adjusting!

    Oh..... and there I was last night, just drinking Jameson on the rocks. Was I doing it wrong?

    I did drink just a tad too much though. Had to prevent the upchuck back in my bed, while 14 family members were all yapping away in my house. Good times!

    Any way you can is the right way. That's the way we all say.
    I too had the same problem. And now it's almost as though someone is pushing on my temples a bit and has already gouged out my eyes. Yeah I have a Christmas song I song the next morning. It starts wish OH HOLY CRAP!
