91 gmc. Drop spindles
Is it normal for the wheels when turned to drag on the A frames?
I haven't looked at this truck since we lowered it a few years ago. Life got in the way. I am re energised to finish it. I painted box and put rockers cab corners in several years ago. 10k 4.3 5spd. Want to finish and drive or sell to fund 51. |

Re: 91 gmc. Drop spindles
Not sure what you mean by drag, but if you’re referring to the wheel hitting the control arm, yes. 85% of the time you have to trim the control arm front lip. I say 85% because initially I thought any lowering job would require a trim, but members here have lowered the OBS truck and not performed a trim job.

Re: 91 gmc. Drop spindles
all depends on wheel diameter and width...
my 18's up front do not rub, and they are 7" wide. |
