[QUOTE="ModularSpeed, post: 12927730, member: 56332"] I don't care what you do. If you want to find out exactly what your issue is, you would simply check your wheel base with and without the brackets, or check your axle with a laser. If the wheel base is off more than 1/16" side to side, then you may never end up knowing what the issue is. An axle tube can move slightly, and it can have drastic effects. Ford can be on the "loose" end of their specs, and it will cause drastic changes in geometry when you modify the angles of the LCA. Heck, the BMR brackets hardly have any "wiggle" room on the mounting bolts (to install them) and you could probably loosen the driver side, hold it back with pressure, re-tighten and change your measurement by 1/8" or so.... Try it. Here is a picture, look at it and think about it. You would NEVER know there was an issue until you leave the red circle....yet, inches down, what happens? The red circle is turning clockwise about 1/8", same as what happens with a twisted tube.... [ATTACH=full]448277[/ATTACH] Things that make you go hmmm...... AlexGreenWheels, you should still refrain from stating that people bend the brackets. :poke: [/QUOTE]
