Vince- So if I switch to speedtech upper control arms I should have a lot more steering articulation? That seems like a much better fix than spacers or new wheels. Is the geometry substantively different or are the current control arms significantly better? I assume I'd have to realign after the swap?

Thanks,

Glad you found the problem with the gauge. Not sure why they spliced since there is an ign and b+ junction stub not 7" away.


The problem with the suspension is its a complete system. If you wanted to run different arms you would have to replace the spindles, brakes and steering linkage too. One thing you can do is have the upper arms modified or redone with a different front tube.
