Hey man could you take a pic from this same angle as this one? This one was when you installed your A/S before you had the 6" lift. I would like to compare the balljoint angle now with the lift.



Looking at the pic you took yesterday the angle looks better now with the lift.



Thanks...

Hey Spinnintires.... First of all I really like your ride!! I actually printed a picture of it(straight on front view)and when I was looking at it with a buddy of mine he noticed the tire tread pattern on the front tires are not the same direction Is this done for a reason? I did not even notice that the tread pattern was reversed... Just wondering why you have it this way? BE

thanks man, makes me feel special you like it that much

well i noticed on my old tires the wear was a little weird when they were same direction, so i switched these to this direction...im waiting to see how it works, so hard very smooth and not loud, and im hoping it works for the best...also i dont do cross rotating but front to back, so i thought this would work....ill let you know how it goes.....

Spinnintires... Yes please let us know. I also never consider reversing tread direction to off set wear pattern. Let us know your outcome. BTW nice looking truck I see where you stated you are twenty years of age.. looks like you've got it all together to be so young, Congrats. to your parents. It does my heart good to see your enthusiasm.. you'll go far in life. BoB

As long as the tires arent directional you can do it. If they are directional, you can do it, but the problem comes to wet weather driving. b.c instead of pushing water from under the tire, the tread when backwords, will actually pull water into the middle of the tread, making it very very easy to hydroplane.
