ok, well good luck with that. your not giving enough info to help you here. If it is in fact your wheel hitting the tie rod, a larger diameter wheel would be the best bet. But, if your not sure whats hitting what, then I cant help ya.

 

Yes they will, they will give me 3" of wheel to wheel travel. And wheel spacers don't add any stress to the tie rods or anything its just like stock. And how the hell can your wheel fall off. All u gotta do is install them right and take care of them, (check them every once in a while) and thele be fine

 

please explain how they will add wheel travel.......you could have a 10 foot long spacer and not gain an inch of wheel travel on an a arm front end. you know what wheel travel is right? the up and down motion of the wheel

how can the wheel fall off? just like I said before - LEVERAGE. your hub is basically a single sheer bolt holding your wheel on to a 5000lb truck designed for stock tires at stock width, now add bigger, heavier tires and move the tire outboard via spacers - you have just significantly increased leverage on the hub. Ive seen snapped hubs due to wheel spacers and bigger tires! Saw it happen!

Also steering inclination (part of suspension geometry) is negatively affected which makes it harder to turn the tires affecting tie rod ends and the rest of the steering.

 

You're also told specifically to check the spacer lugs for the first few months of install until the lugs have seated themselves properly. I've seen idiots do the same thing. Just ride them until they fall off. Stupid.

 

Well, I hope you aren't calling me stupid, cause I rotate my tires monthly. I have a detailing business and it is easier to polish my rims when I take them off, and when I would take them off I would check the lugs on the spacers with a torque wrench. But I guess I was stupid for putting them on in the first place. Guess I am a litttle **** for rotating my tires this much but then again when I get 75,000-80,000 miles out of a set of mud tires guess it is worth the extra work.

 

yes spacers add stress, but the same amount that a wheel with different back spacing will,

i run 1.5" spacers on the front only of my truck without issues

 

wheel to wheel travellllllllll ur retartedd.

 

I have a set of 1.5" spacers all the way around my truck and they work great. Of course I torqued them down to 150 ft lbs and rechecked everything after 2 weeks, so far no backing issues and everything is fine.

 

wheel to wheel travel? what the hell does that mean? wheel travel is measured at the hub - the distance the suspension will allow the hub to move UP and DOWN.......Wheel spacers will not increase wheel travel as described. All they do is make the TRACK WIDTH wider, and mess with your geometry and increase load. But ya, Im the retard huh? STFU junior.

 

Be very careful with them, I had the spacer actually break on my 67 camaro. Tore up my front fender. It pulled the lug nuts through the spacer.
