Michael,
Speaking of 165 x 15 tires. Has anybody had trouble with them rubbing
the upper kingpin mounting plate? I put a set of Verdenstein (sp) on my
4/4 back in 69. They're still on it - about 25,000 mi. But I've had
a problem with the tire just rubbing the top pad.
Note, for anyone thinking of installing the neg. camber (decamber)
modification, watch the tire clearence.
