i'm driving a D1 with ome HD lift and 235x85's and i've had to replace the steering stop bolts about 3 times because they bend. i finally got some going for a while and sure enough my girlfriend gets behind the wheel and slams that sucker too far and they're bent again. bad too it going to take a while to get them off this time. without them im scared parking cause that rubbing noise hurts my soul. any suggestions? what do you guys use |

Damn, Popeye, ease up on that steering wheel ! Seriously, I've got the same size tires on my OME HD D1 with no problems once adjusted after tire installation. Hadn't heard of them getting bent up. Is this common? |

I could be wrong, but it was my understanding that the steering stop bolts were bent at an angle in the first place. |

if you're cranking the wheel hard enough to bend those bolts, your power steering pump & box must just love you  |
