Just installed 285/75/16's raised the torsion bars about an inch and had the front end realigned. I tried a 4wd launch and truck is pulling to the right pretty hard compared to the stock tires. Is this normal???

anytime you raise the T-bars the torquesteer will become worse.:ro)

Cognito steering braces and tie rod sleeves seem to help with this problem

Hah! they're magically fantastic!


Bull 5hit!

try launching hard in the rain!

it is the nature of the differential is why it pulls to one side.

Why would you want to do that?
