Upper Balljoint hitting coils?
Just currious to see if anyone has experienced this problem with their spacer lift or OME lift (using 881 coils up front). I had the truck in for inspection and noticed that the upper ball joint (i.e. where the upper ball joint is in the steering knuckle) is in contact with the coil on both sides of the truck with the truck up on the lift at the garage.
I used custom spacers for 1.5" of lift with Rancho 5000 shocks. (The pics can be seen by following the link in my sig below.) Anyhow just wondering if I should consider a limiting strap?
Cheers,

Give SS3 a call for some limiting straps. I have that problem at full droop w/ my Tundra springs. Makes a little contact and a little noise.

 

It's been a problem for years. Lots of people have it, most don't even know it.

 

sschaefer3,
Thanks for the feedback. Have you heard of anyone having a coil break because of this? I guess I'll have to look at setting up a limiting strap. i'll take a look at your website. I can't read it properly here because this computer is fu#!$%
Cheers,

FilthyRich,
Thanks, I'll have to wait until I get to work. I can see the pics, but can't read anything because this computer does not recognize the lettering used?
Long story...
Cheers ,
