I cannot for the life of me figure out why my CV Axles are moved forward near the knuckle, any ideas?
I had the dealership install a new front diff because my old one passenger stub went bad and had no time to wait for part , so I'm wondering if they installed the brackets incorrect... But looking at my Zone Offroad 6" manual, it all looks correct.
Only thing I can think of is that my lower controls arms are the wrong ones because those are the last parts installed
I made a youtube video:
**Edit: I confirmed with another vehicle at another dealership with the same lift that the angles are correct. Seems like when you go 4 - 6" lift to keep the wheel centered in the wheel well that the knuckles had to be moved forward a bit causing the CV axles to have a horizontal shift forward.
I do have the extended Fox Coilover shocks 883-06-073 and have adjusted the height to be a bit taller to match my extended rear with Airbags filled so I can have the lifted leveled look.
