Bump steer

Bump steer
I purchased 97 spindles, rotors, ect for the five lug swap on my 86. I plan to run s197 wheels. The rear is on and spaced very nicely. My two problems are 1. The center cap will not clear the dust cap. 2. I was told the 97 spindles would cause bump steer issues?I guess I will have to run a wheel spacer even though I do not want to. But does anyone know about the bump steer?

S197 wheels can be used but alot of people don't on a fox. IMO they just don't look right because of their specs. The 96-04 spindles will cause bump steer. You might not notice it at first but it does. When I first converted mine I didn't notice it but after driving it for awhile I can tell its there. The skinnier the tire you run the more you will notice it. I have 275's up front so it took a little time to realize I was having bump steer

If it doesn't work with the SN stuff they DEF WON'T with the ranger/lincoln rotors. The dust cap is alot bigger than the SN. Looks like you will have to use wheel spacers or use different wheels. What wheels are you wanting exactly?

I am using 05 wheels that are the split five star style. I am not sure of their actual name. I installed a 98 rear end and the wheels fit great in the rear. I purchased 95 spindles and rotors so i hope it will all work. I talked with a guy who used the same wheels with 95 v6 rotors and spindles and he doesnt even run a spacer.
