Rick, thanks! I am not sure what a "magnetic of visegrips" is but I do have a magnetic dial indicator base and dial indicator. I have read the instructions in the manual (although I did not check before I tore them down as I should of) and at the ERA site about checking the preload and believe I understand them. The current spacer is .132 (measured) on both sides. Chaplin...... yeah, where has he been??

Paul. I can feel nothing unusual when driving. Nothing at all. Everything sounds and feel just as it always has. I can move the top and bottom of the tire in and out but it is no where near 3/8"! more like 3/64" (although I have not measured it).

I have a call into Butch Capps to discuss....... we are playing phone tag at this point. So far, I am inclined to think that it is wear and tear at this point and needs adjusted.......................................... ..................BUT, I am open for suggestions, which is why I am asking YOU!!!

Thanks much
Rick
