--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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. I think i posted this in the wrong spot earlier. Sorry. Can somebody give me some advice?
