    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    Is it safe to drive with the NDTs tires on the front temporarily? I have to move some stuff for about 20 miles. (Only around 800Ibs)

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    After getting the wheel out of the way and checking under the truck, the wheel is rubbing on the arm that connects to the tie rod. My adapter plate is 3/8 in thick. Im guessing the 1/2-inch-thick spacer should solve the problem or at least I hope. These wheels offset seems very similar to the...

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    Smart I'm going to give that a try, I found some 1/2 Inch adapters, if those give it enough space than I'll go for some spacers in between the adapters. Does anyone have a picture of how close the tie rods are to the stock wheels or how it is to the other MRAP wheels?

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    Wheel Studs | MV Parts Store, for all your Military Truck Parts (mvpartstore.com) Seems like I can extend the studs with these and run spacers to space out the wheels from hitting the tie rods

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    Is there any wheel spacers on the market available for the rockwell axles? It seems like a spacer would be all I need for nothing to rub

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    I'll have to check, they're not that thick, but I don't think spacers would work since the studs are short. The tie rods are barely rubbing but it's rubbing enough to eat the wheel if you move the truck.

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    They'll still rub with the wheels being turn around or would it just limit my turning radius? I really would hate to ditch these aluminum wheels on the side for the steel ones.

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    I think I've figured it out, these are all dually MRAP wheels, does anyone know if I can just turn the front wheels around and run them or would I have to get another set of 2 wheels for the front?

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    Yep, I'm lost, I've research for the pass 2 hours and haven't seen anyone else have this issue. After looking at the truck from up front, the tires does look a bit more sucked in than they should be, maybe these ain't the right wheels for the front? I'm clueless

    MRAP wheels not fitting up front

    Looks like the exact same setup I have, I have no clue why my wheels is scrapping on the front. Do you have anything spacing the front wheels out besides the adapter?

    I finally got to actually putting these on the truck but Im kind of stuck, how do we air the rear tires up? the valve stem is so close to the hub that I can't get my pump fitting to go on it, is it only able to be aired up with the wheel off the truck? Also, do we use the stud with the square...

    Cadillac Valve & TDM Keeps Burning Out

    Is it normal for the fan to partially engage? I notice with this new cadillac valve, my fan partially engages around 225-230 and shuts off at around 190. My other cadillac valve had always fully engaged the fan, This was with my old radiator though, the temp usually would never drop and stayed...
