is it really as simple as it looks? the reason i ask, with my 31's, they are awfully close to rubbing in the back, but have plenty of room in the front. so if i'd like to move it a little closer to center in the wheel well. all i was thinking was making a 1/4" spacer (maybe a little more even, maybe like 1/2") to go on the end of the radius arm, to push the whole bean slightly forward. there should be plenty of flex in the axle pivot to compensate for that, and i cant imagine any problems in the axle shafts or drive shaft from that small movement. sound okay or am i crazy?
edit: i've considered fender trimming as well but i think even if i do trim them (and i will sooner or later) i still want to move the axle up just a hair
