Just leveled the truck. CV angle opinions? pics
Hey guys I just leveled my truck (Backwood Boy Lift) lol T-Bars but anyways I took some pics of my angles and want to see what you guys think. And just another thing.. My drivers side adjusting bolt is like all the way cranked and my passenger side is about.. 3/4 of the way cranked but the truck sits within like 1/2" of eachother.. Is that normal?


angle looks fine... i was worried about mine when i did it but everyone said it would be ok. mine looked like yours.
the bolts wont always be in the same amount due to some sag from the torsion bars.
where are the pics of the whole truck???

What is the measurement from the ground to the fender at the center of the wheel front and back, and also tire height? those look kinda steep to me, compare your pics to these in this thread.https://dodgeforum.com/forum/3rd-gen...emoved-it.html It is raining here right now or i would take pics of mine, but I think you may have cranked too much
both of you can be prepared to change out your CV's way more often. by best advice is keep an eye on those boot clamps. the added angle has a tendency to pull them off. if they come off or get loose (most noted by grease all over everything down there) it needs fixed IMMEDIATELY. even driving 5 miles will allow garbage in that joint and eat it out QUICK.
thats what she said. lol. i just had to...
i can deal with replacing cv joints every few years... as long as i dont have to as often as you do

Thats all I am going to say about that.
As far as the CV joints I have no idea. I dont have them.

after closer examination, i realized the one thats destroyed has a giant crack in the boot and very little grease left in it. the exact thing i warned you about is from experience. i have just under 6k miles on this cv joint and its done that quick, all cause some sand/dirt from the road got in there
I agree completely, that is what I have been sayin, you put the boot in a bind what do you think the joint looks like, and if you are in 4wd and gettin it, then hit a hole and that joint maxes out you are in trouble for sure!!!

Okay I took measurements.
Rear Driver Fender Height: 41"
Front Driver Fender Height: 40"
Passenger Rear Fender Height: 40.5"
Passenger Front Fender Height: 40.5"
(these measurements were taken on my driveway which is in no way shape or form flat)
tire size is 275/60-20 and i measured them to be right at 32"
Now I also did height from the top of the tire to the fender and got:
Rear Driver: 9-1/4"
Front Driver: 9"
Rear Passenger: 9-1/4"
Front Passenger: 9"
