Front wheel well on a 01 SuperCrew, Is this normal??

Is it normal for the front wheels in a SuperCrew to sit towards the back of the wheel well like this?

mine are much more centered than that. Did you just buy this truck? If so, did you get a CarFax?

I didn't buy it. I was however looking at it, and thought it was not right. I know it has a salvage title, but was supposedly only because a shed fell ontop of it. I will steer clear of this one.

That could be control arm bushings being REALLY bad. Actually I have heard of people setting the shims for the control arm bolts on backwards causing the control arm to have a wierd angle that pushes the wheel backwards or forewards like that. It could just be and honest mistake.

are you serious????? you can't be serious


there's nothing to cause any insurance issues if it passes inspection

the truck in the picture looks ike the torsion bars are cranked to the max (does the other side look the same way?????)

I either saw this truck or one just like it on ebay. I remembered this thread when I saw it. I'll see if I can find it.
