You must be havin the same problem I was! Dude the axle wrap was disgusting... clicking and knocking when I juiced it... It was because the U-bolts were like 1/2"ers or 3/8 or something... So I sprung for the ones from the RC kit, 3/4" in there now and there's no axle wrap anymore, effin sweet haha

dude got more pictures? your truck looks level in all your pics now. if you got pic messaging you could txt em to me haha. but if it is level how am i as tall as you with 4" blocks total? and btw i have f350 u bolts on my truck and she still wraps like a mother haha

If I gun it on a road with bumps I get axle wrap bad.. like if I gun it off the line at a light and the road has the "dips" it hops like a ****** trucker!

Flat road it's fine..

Ive got a 3 in block over the 2 in stock block, i also have an aftermarket 3" key and the ride is bumpy as flock. Some days i wonder if my whole front end is gonna drop out when i hit a bump. I havent really noticed any hopp in the rear end when I take off. I guess maybe im not sure what axle wrap is. I do have an issue when i turn. The rear end makes a groaning noise. And something you were talking about earlier, when I turn about 3/4 turn in reverse my 35's rub my valance. But it just seams to do it on the drivers side. I also rub the frame a bit more on the driver side than the passenger side. I will try to get a pic of my cv joint angle today, i am at work and not sure how well my camera phone will take the pic in the foggy weather we have here.
