when I bolt on the arms they go right on no problem, but the wheels have so much positive camber I can't drive, lay the truck out and they will cruch my fenders.Anyone else have this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

Are u just using the lower arms? i had the same problem with byc arms, but mine were actually chassis tech arms that he modded. But i just got my truck aligned, but it sounds like yours is a lil worse than mine.

i think BYC arms are like Streetsource shirts, you order them but never get them..

You have to adjust your upper arms by putting shims in if you can. I ran into this problem. I ordered BYC arms WAY WAY back before everyone jumped on the wagon, so I got mine within 3 weeks. Anyways. I have ART upper arms, what I did was add more shims to the upper arm to pull in the camber. ALSO. I worked at a manufacturing company, and had one of the welders section the uppers 1" then they sleeved the arms on both sides, and fully tig welded them back together. This solved my problem.

yeah I tried the shim this but then decided that 1 1/2" worth of shims would be wrong. I got mine way back also from ssd. I wish I would have spentthe extra $50 and got art arms.

He makes allot of arms shorter, this is why it was better to get upper and lowers. Just cut your uppers and shrink them down. This way you also have more clearence to turn.

What year ranger are they on? I have his lowers on my truck(99 mazda), they dont fit like they should and the bushings will probably wear out fast but I get alot of lift and they seem to work ok.
