Is there a fix for the following problem.......other than not turning the steering wheel completely one way or the other.<br><br>Question: I want to run 33 inch tires (BFG Muds) on my 73 bronco. They fit perfectly except for one thing. When the steering wheel is cranked all the way (Either way left or right)the tire tread will rub against the Radius Arms. Does anybody have a suggestion? Other than not turning the wheel all the way. Are there steering stops you can buy? Can you relocate the radius arms in?<br><br>Help,<br><br>Glenn

Yes there are stops, one on each side. There is a bolt and a jam nut on the knuckle(back side of knuckle). On my axle the nut was welded to the bolt, but I would just back them out of the knuckle and and replace them with new ones. Then you can adjust them so your tires do not hit the radius arms.
