OME & LR UCA

Same here. I don't want to fill the entire wheel well either. Thinking of getting 17" rims and 265/70/17. But I want Duratracs, which to be on the safe side, my rims can only be 8.5" wide, which limits my rim selection and eliminates the rims I really wanted. I need to build a friggin flow chart.

 

THANKS

 

Well, had a vibe at 20 mph so crawled up under to put on the OME Carrier Bearing drop. While I was under there discovered the installer pinched or poked a hole in my outer passenger side cv boot. Callled him and he said he would make it good and replace the boot on Wednesday. It's a very small hole and its only been on the pavement, so just replacing the boot should do it.
Also have a noise going over speed bumps. I think the passenger side strut is rubbing the swaybar....but the driver side clears no problem
Oh, and still have the vibe.

Other than that, its all good.

 

Install shop put a new cv boot on Wednesday. Ordered a CB drop bracket from Beefed Taco/Streetacos same day, hoping to fix my vibe. Moving my youngest out to his own apartment tomorrow. Went out and picked up a 6 x 16 heavy duty trailer from a buddy for the move. Made my Taco squat by an inch (only have the AAL right now). No friggin vibe. Fingers crossed that's a good sign Beefed Bracket will do it.

 

So the OME CB drop didn't do it for you? Is the Beefed Taco bracket suppose to give more of a drop?

 

OME drop is 3/8" , Beefed is 1 1/2" IIRC

 

ah-ha! Good to know. I have a very faint vibe at like 15mph. Even with my OME CB drop, my driveshaft length is not back to stock length. There was 9/32" difference from pre to post lift.

 

Thats the exact same lift I have. I opted for the 265/75R16. I think they look good without having to do new wheels, and cutting. I really dont want to have to cut anything. Also flipping the carrier bearing fixed all my vibes.

 

yes, you remember correctly, 1.5"

 

Those tires do look good. Good to see since I'm looking at 265/70/17...Basically the same size.
