1997 Ranger XLT Front Wheel Problem

[Cellmass]

My front wheel are inclined because i've put some wheel spacer on it....do you have any idea. Thanks

What are you asking again" What do you mean by "inclined?" What type of wheel spacer?

Are you talking about the upper part of the tires leaning outwards from the vehicle, or what? How large was the spacer?

Hey cellmass, both questions you have asked have been answered various times before. Take a look in the Tech Library, both answers are in there.

Do you mean you put wheel spacers in that moved your front wheels out farther away from the truck? That will probably put more leverage on the suspension, making the truck sit lower. This would cause the tires to lean in towards the truck (top is closer than the bottom). An alignment will fix the camber problem, but this will be hard on the already weak design of the wheel bearings.


If you put coil spacers in and the tires are leaning out, the top away from the truck, an alignment will fix this also.
