Re: front and rear track width for 2016

Thanks Bill. I am at the point where one tire is wore down vs the other ,so that would make sense as to not doing the alignment. I just got done making some measurements and found the right front close to 1/8 toe in. I set up a sting line and made the necessary adjustment to get it a little less tha...

Re: front and rear track width for 2016

Thanks BLM, that is the game plan with the toe and pretty much the same info I found in lime for track width, I was trying to narrow the front track down as it does change measurements slightly if you use the string method to make sure you are square and centered on the truck, just not sure if it is...

Re: front and rear track width for 2016

I need to correct that, they told me it would be a waste of money as they would have to do it again when I got the new tires for manufacturer tread life warranty. Caster is 5.0 left front and 5.3 right and camber is .3 left and .1 right I hear what you are saying on the wear, the hardest wear is on ...

Re: Bf Goodrich Ko2 tread excessive tread wear

Hey BLM ,I would settle for that kind of milage.

They really no how to stand behind their product when they know this issue of poor we...

The other issue is the fact all t...

Bf Goodrich Ko2 tread excessive tread wear

Hi, looking to see if anyone else has experienced a super fast read wear with the ko2 tire? I have about 9/32 left on mine at 6500 miles . I talked to someone at BFG and they told me they more than likely will not do anything about this as they tires are not totally worn out.

Re: 2013+ truck steering nut recall?

Did you read the "fix" for the issue? It involves welding the nuts to the sleeve, not happening on mine unless they get certified welders to do it(not trusting the "authorized techs " who have trouble changing oil to do it right).

pa emissions

Hi, looking for those members in Pennsylvania to see what emission test they are needing to have . I have to go through a two speed test due to the truck not weighing the 9000 lb limit and locations that do the test in my area are getting scarce as well as charging around $90 to do it .

olyelr , does the upper mount plate cause any issues with the sidewall of the tire at full squish? Hard to see how close to the tire the plate is from the pics.

Hi guys, just looking to see how your setup is holding up? Are the bags showing any abnormal wear ?
