THREAD ORIGINATING FROM "GENERAL" - "Finally on the Road" http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?p=880986#post880986 Thanks guys for the nice comments, I'm glad you're liking the green because I was originally thinking of changing the color until I put the magnum 500s on, now I want to stick with the green. Plus, its a classic color from the 70s that you just don't see everyday. About the steering issue. I do have power steering. It seems worse when making a right turn. But I have noise both ways. I have Hedman headers, the drop down bracket they sell did not provide enough clearance. So, I fabricated my own, it seems to work well. Not quite as pretty as the Hedman factory bracket but I painted it black and it blends in good. I'll check the pitman arm as was mentioned, to make sure its not hitting the headers. As well as the brake caliper. I did notice a rubbing mark on the outside corner of the passenger side caliper, but I didn't see any marks on the rim? I have 15x7 on the front, 15x8 on the back. Could this caliper issue be the culprit? I'll pop the wheel off the drivers side and see what that caliper looks like. I was a little confused because I didn't think the rim/ caliper clearance changed with steering or suspension motion, plus no marks on the rim?
Rims ... If you have 15s, don't worry about it. You should be fine with factory disc brake calipers. The added diameter gets them away from the caliper. Looking at your pics I was guessing 14s ... must be the camera angle. It is only a 14x7 that gets close. A switch to a 14x6 will also work in that scenario.
