Re: My Coy's came today!
Grinding the rotor will fix your problem, the weird thing is I have one set that needed the rotor ground and the other did not, I bought both sets used. The burb's just bolted on.

Re: My Coy's came today!
Do you have an early rear housing under it? If you measure from backing plate to backing plate, how wide is it? 55.5" or 57" ?

Re: My Coy's came today!
I'm fairly certain it's the wider rear axle but I never actually measured it. Another clue is I don't think the wheels would tuck aired out (bags someday) if they stuck out another 3/4"

Re: My Coy's came today!
stomper, sorry it took so long to get back to you.
those were the problems I was thinking of. They said they were fixed. I guess not. I went with the Boss 383's wheels. No problems after they grinded the front hub just a little and 1/2" spacers on back for wheel well clearance.. I also put 1/2" spacers on back and bought 10 new lug nuts for it that had a deeped shank.

Re: My Coy's came today!
UPDATE:
FRONT: Ground the edge of the rotor/hub. No problem. Before After REAR: I actually have a little more than an inch inside. ............and also here's where the outside of the lip lands inside the wheel well.

Re: My Coy's came today!
Here are my pictures hub grinded with tires mounted in above pictures above.
My back only rubbed when I would hit holes in the road. Hub grinded and painted. Before spacer. After.

Re: My Coy's came today!
Just made my weekend deadline!
Before and After The rear tire bulge is only about 1/2" so the clearance concern I had on the inside rear is fine. The taller rear tires gave it more rake than I care for. I'm going to install 1-1/2" blocks to make it more to my liking. Will still be able to run the 15" rallys. Then I'll probably need bags to bump it back up when I have the rallys on. 255/40 front and 295/40 rear. My favorite shot

Re: My Coy's came today!
got the cad file to have 1/4" thick spacers made so you dont have to grind the hubs. free to anyone who wants a copy. email me at
fatboys6969@gmail.com and I will send it to you. I used 1/4" aluminum on mine. works great !!! |

Re: My Coy's came today!
Now with 1-1/2" lowering blocks so I guess it's a 4/7.5 drop.

Re: My Coy's came today!
Yes! looks perfect. I know each truck is different but I bet mine will need blocks too. Glad to here the ride is good with those tires/wheels. I can't wait to get mine going.
What's next for your truck? |
