I have been plagued with steering issues. Seems that if you fix one thing it screws up another. Anyone following my saga knows that the OME cc bushings had me at zero degrees of caster and the truck wandered the road pretty bad with my 33’s. So I opted to press out the CC bushings and put new OEM bushings in place with Slee’s caster plates. Now I seem to be noticing two things. First, I think it’s called the track bar, is coming in contact with the control arms. As a side note I have not welded the plates yet but plan on doing so. I am noticing some movement because some times if I look under the truck I have an inch clearance from the control arms. Other times when I look under the truck they are touching (as the pic shows). Second, on full droop my front drive shaft hits my sway bar. I believe this can be remedied by purchasing slee’s drop blocks for the front sway bar.
So, what’s up with the hitting? Will adding the Mr. Gasket spacers rotate the axle enough to get the track bar off the control arms? And secondly, will welding the plates eliminate the movement I seem to be noticing?
