Ruh roh raggy........for real this time after some caliper grinding.
It seems like bronco's in this club have a hard time holding onto shocks.

Looks like TSL's? Are you having to do caliper grinding because they are a 15" rim?

I think he grinded down the calipers for them to fit. The ruh roh is probably for the parts that he's about to break now.

This. They're 42" tsls. 16.5" rimI think he grinded down the calipers for them to fit. The ruh roh is probably for the parts that he's about to break now.
I'll only have to take off a hair from the rear caliper but quite a bit from the front.

Really? a 16.5" does not clear? I guess it is the back spacing??? I know your axles are newer than mine, but mine clear 16.5's fine. 15's bring the suck.

I just watched a spider dominate a fly on the wall outside, i thought would would travis do? and i did the opposite, spider lives!
problem solved:
2010 VW Jetta - DD, 5 Banger, 5 Speed, 1000 Watts of sound!!
1979 Ford Bronco Custom - 400/T18/205.. 35" SSRs, 4" lift, Rancho 5000s, 200 watts of sound!!
in 05 they moved to 14" rotors in the front and 13.75" rotors in the rear. I might have to take a 1/16th off the rear. But i'll probably have to take 1/4" off the front.
My 17" steelies have a little over a quarter inch clearance between the caliper and rim, so it would make sense that a 16.5" steely would barely touch. But, since they're aluminum they require a little grinding.
This seems remotely like usable tech information... WTF, get back to discussing porno...

Are you aware how bad those wheels suck? You better get some on board air, and a high lift, and starter fluid, and matches.
Keep it above 9 psi, they are ok.

Looks like i'll be doing some serious fender trimming.
I got them on but I still probably have 30 minutes of grinding left on the front driver. I have alot of material to work with so i'm not worried about the calipers breaking.
Where did you get the tires from?
