Ever so often we still manage to get some tire rubbing
even if we space out the tires properly. Other times we just didn't
want to space the tires out so we will need to adjust your steering
stops. The easiest way to do this is to remove the steering stops
from the steering knuckles and add a few washers behind them.
Additional
Parts:
7/16" Washers, a 10mm washer may work also
Tools
Needed: Adjustable Wrench or appropriate sized combo wrench.
Installation:
1.
Have someone turn the steering wheel until the tire rub's against
whatever part it's been hitting. Now hold that position and
measure the distance between the end of the steering stop on the axle
and the bolt on the steering knuckle.
2. Remove the bolt with an adjustable wrench or combo wrench.
The nut is welded onto the bolt so all you need to do is turn the
bolt. The bolt is threaded into the steering knuckle, the nut
only acts to position the length of the bolt.
3. Once the bolt is removed you will need to place a washer behind
the bolt.
This is somewhat of a trial and error method to see
how many you will need to stop the rub, but you already have the basic
measurement from earlier.
