 Subject: got turning radius back
IP: Logged
Message:
i have a 2001 rc 4.7 5-speed with the djm 3" cntl. arms and 5" shack/hang. i'm running on 225/60/r16's. i went to my local race track and took the 3 hour high performance driving school on there 1.8 mile road course. after 2 hours of very hard driving, my turning radius came back.
the truck handled very well, but i need to change my brakes again, they were smoking on the track. the course cost $350 and was well worth the money. good luck

probably because you were doing so many turns it caused your turn stops to be flattened out.
when i say turn stop I am taliking about the little piece of the control arm tthat stops your turning radius. After time these get worn down which increases the turn radius
