Would lowering affect the turning radius?

[CochinoFilipino]

My turning radius sucks azz. I didn't do the drop on my truck so I don't know the details. Referencing the pics in the Early Classic Catalog it looks like a 3.5/5" drop.



Would you normally adjust the turn stops in a way that would affect the turning radius? Or do these trucks just generally need alot of room?

Thanks,

As long as your tires aren't rubbing anything then the turning radious is what it is. I have a long bed dropped 4 1/2" in the front and 5" in the rear and I haven't had any conflicks with it turning but you do need a little room to do a u-turn.

Some drop spindles have longer bump stops. May have to trim to get your turning radius back. Just watch your clearances.

If it's really bad I would be willing to bet you have the tie rods and center link in wrong.

When looking at the front of the truck you should see them coming in fron the back of the truck. If you can see the greese nipple from the front of the truck they are in wrong.

if the spindles are older dropped spindles then you might have issues. i had the same problem a while back (i think it was early classic spindles) where the stops were way longer. i cut down the stops a little bit and it made a huge difference. before i could barely park
