this is a mod i did. in no way am i telling you to do it. it could weaken the lower control arm, causing it to fail. i am merely informing others how i fixed the problem, not instucting on how to fix their vehicle, bla bla bla, sorry, i just have to cover my arse. anyway, if you look at the picture, there is a big primer spot on the lower control arm. look even closer, and you can see the "lip". i ground the edge off of the lip, and shot primer over it, so you can see it better. this is were the 17x9 R's inner contacts the lower control arm at full turn. it took a few passes to get it right, but now i have full turn lock-to-lock with no rubbing. also, i had to do this years ago on a Chevy 2wd with drop spindles/springs and wheels with mondo backspacing. i drove the truck for 2 years, sold it, and have seen it on the road from time to time. never caused a problem, but it wasnt a baja rig, either.
