Help
I just lowered my 72 LB with 2.5 in drop spindles in the front. Looks great but I have a problem. First off, whenever I put the thing in gear it does not creep forward like it used to. When I'm driving, I hear a scraping noise coming from the driver side front. Along with a popping that seems to happen every time the wheel turns. Also when I turn the truck I hear a wierd rubbing sound coming from the same area?!!! Surely the whell isn't hitting the fender. There seems to be plenty of room. The tires are not stock though. They are cooper cobra P255 70 R15. Can somebody give me some advice?

Re: Help
It could be a few things. Check your calipers for clearance to start with.

Re: Help
Is the wheel rubbing on the lower control arm from the placements of the spindle and the offset and size of wheel? The popping sound could be the wheel binding against the control arm.
