The Lair

Thanks rob, I really appreciate that! I try to put it the work once to get it done and not have to worry about it. Plus I enjoy it. Welded my own cmc which was a freaking blast and so satisfying.

 

That’s odd. Maybe it’s just the year truck? My numbers aren’t crazy (caster) and I’ve stuffed my fronts as much as I’ve could at rausch and no rubbing.

 

Wow dude! Those beads aren’t terrible at all! You’ve been practicing a bunch or what? Looks pro Bro

 

Thanks, a little bit! Here’s probably my best bead to date.

 

I rub going over a 3 inch curb by my house. I rub bad in reverse. Definitely hitting the cab mount. I never hit it before, but now it's bad. These are my latest numbers.

 

That’s awesome! So you just made a little template after you cut your mount huh. Jig saw to cut your plate?

 

The backspacing of the wheels help with rubbing also..

 

Shit man. I don’t know those numbers are good. my CMC is just kind of meh and don’t rub. EST liked it because it almost looked stock. But I’ll need to cut it and weld in a plate.

 

This is true too. But I thought he was running similar to mine. 4.3 or something like that.

 

Mine are -10 offset. I forget what that equates to in BS...
What's your thoughts on my scenario?

Yeah I need to chop off my cmc and redo I think.

 

That was a different little project. For my cmc plates I just grabbed some from mobtown. I was there anyways so he cut me some with the plasma.

 

What new front parts?

 

I agree, after installing the 5100s and 887s, I rub so much more , only in reverse. The alignment guys only got me to 2.2 on the camber tho. I think when I find someone to get it at 3 or over like it was then most of my issues would be solved.

 

Do you have uca?

 

Kings and JBAs

 

Yup

 

Pulling the coilover is the best way to find rubbing before it’s an issue on trail. I was told to do the same to fit my 34s. I still rub here and there full stuffed but it’s not going to stop my forward progress or damage anything forcing it. Glad I got the bulk figured out in one shot on the driveway.

 

On April 22 I'm redoing the whole rear suspension. At that point I'll set the preload on the front. I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

 

And you getting new rub on the cab mount?
