flex it out
This is my plan. The stinkbug look is far worse with the 315's than with the 285's, and that's part of what's bothering me. In an ideal world, I would like to continue to run the OME 2.5" medium lift for as long as I can. I also don't want to make my 80 a monster truck just yet... well, at least not before I get a 100 series for my DD, at which point it's game on
With the new tires, my castor should not have changed as I didn't change the relationship of the axle to the truck itself. The truck is sitting higher now, but that's only due to taller tires, so my caster, without new springs or spacers, should be the same at this very moment as it was when I had the 285's. Now, if I go with spacers up front then my castor will change again, at which point I will likely need to go with the blue bushings.
I'm planning on making the spooky night run this Saturday, and I'm hoping that with a headlight / headlamp I will be able to flex the truck out and get an indication of what I will need to do with my current setup to keep from rubbing too terribly bad.
Thanks all for the info
