Im trying to gather up parts to get my subframe together and im wondering if im going to have clearance problems? im trying to keep from adding tru turn and wondering if the short z28 steering arms are a neccessity with 19's? Any suggestions on what pitman arm and steering arm combo will work well with a lee 670.
Thanks

I'm running the short Z/28 arms and I have 18x9's in the front with forgeline GA3R open lug with 5-1/2" BS and Moog tie rods and have about .060 clearance between the inner wheel barrel lip and the tie rod. Cutting it close but it technically doesn't touch so Ill run it as is maybe run a wheel spacer that'll change my backspace but hopefully itll work without having to touch much else. I'm guessing if u run a 19" you should be ok? But with an 18 it's close. Don't know if I helped but that's me experience.

true turn on 68 with 18's 5.5 backspace zero issues, lots of room could 6" backspace if frame was notched and pulled fender wells but i like fender wells since i daily drive, even in inclimate weather. 19 would only create more clearance even with 5.5 back space. 152772:smoke:
