Relivant or not I like to through a new pic out there of where im at with her


one more question for now. Im running fwd wheels and when I turn all the way the upper balljoint rubs my rim. Not a huge deal but when I flippes my lower bj I did not flipp my upper. My question is is it gonna give me more clearance to my wheel or less by flipping the upper? Worst case senario 1/4 spacers all I the way around..

 

nice ride, what sort of drop do you have on that beaut?

 

i'm not sure if flipping the upper ball joint would make it better but i'd say the spacers should help.

 

Thank You very much.
Rear has 3" blocks pulled middle leaf and flipped over load leaf. And this weekend it shall recieve 6" step notch and 4" pinion angled blocks
Front has simply flipped bjs and cranked torsions.
Sittin on a set of enkei racing fwds with 185/60r/15s

 

I guess trying never hurt! And id like to Keep the stress on my bearings and lug studs to a minimum but 1/4" wont be to bad. Also does anyone know how or where on the rim I can find what the offset is?

 

it might be stamped on the back of the rim somewhere. the 1/4" spacer shouldn't be too bad but you should try flipping the uppers and see if it helps.

 

Sounds like a plan friend. I will post up wat I find

 

what offset are the rims? can i ask where you bought them, looking to get the exact rims but in black. did you add spacers?

 

I belive there are +40 offset I belive... im not sure exactly where to look.. they are fwd wheels and. I bought em from a second hand wheel and tire shop local here and there nice. Got 1/4" spacers up front now to give me a little clearence on my upper bj during sharp turns. May need to through my other to in the rear I think under large bumps while turning the rim hits my frame.

Edit; flipping upper balljoints does not give more clearence. It does seem like itd help for the very low people to get a better angle out of there upper bj and correct a small amount of camber.. but not in my cards just yet. Maybe longer lug studds and bigger spacer in my future. But no bigger than 1/4" for my stock lug studs for me. front drop spindles would do me serious good about now.

 

ya i really like the look of those rims, not to bling bling but not a jdm situation either... thanks for the info

 

Well thank u. And ur welcome
