Got the truck down to SC, now it is time to fix the dare thing.

I had a bad vibration in the front. I deteremined it was the ball joints. I knew they were going to go out since the rubber was damaged when it was lowered initially. I was looking at the camber plates, they are maxed. By my tire wear, it is generally even (25000 miles on my Toyos). The outer edge is worn from taking the turns.

I have 2" drop spindes / 2" drop springs. The offset bushings allow for an addtional 1 or 2 degrees of camber. Anyone have experience with these? Is there an alternative? Should I be concerned about the control arm touching the frame?

Thanks guys,

 

Come on guys, as many of us that have dropped trucks, someone has to have run into this issue and solved it.

 

replace your bj's and make sure everything else is good then check the alignment again
if the outer edge of your tire is worn its either because of the bad bj's or a bad alignment not from taking turns

which way are the alignment cams maxed?

 

It wouldn't surprise me if the alignment was bad. The place that did it when I was living in RI were a bunch of ding dongs. But, the ball joints were bad.

Cams are maxed so that the control arm is all the way back towards the frame. I have pics if you are interested.

 

Daystar Coil Spring Spacers, Moog Ball Joints and Moog "Problem Solver" Control Arm Bushings did the trick for me!
