Same thing here in Washington State. The cops are just ignoring things. Headlights and light bars are just the top of the iceberg.
It's becoming the wild west on the streets.

Not stacks. But I can also show why some of this stuff is a bad idea.


Just have a look at this video. Head over here to read the full article. https://www.ford-trucks.com/articles...y-ford-trucks/

The video is not the same truck.
But if you don't want to read it. Just take a look a the video.

That was wheel bearing failure. No audio in the vid but I guarantee those wheel bearings were howling for a long time ignored before letting go.

No modifications necessary. Ignore bad wheel bearings and this is what will eventually happen.

Man that scares the hell out of me. I do have a 4 inch lift and my wheels do stick out a bit (no spacers) but nothing like these pavement princesses. I check suspension quite regularly and get an alignment at the beginning of every season. Any modifications will increase wear.

The cheapest I've went on bearings is timken. Only balljoints I'll ever use is spicer. Also I keep a infrared thermometer in the truck. Always checking hub temps.

Been lifting trucks since 1977 and I brought up the same question, Why? Trying to look like a pulling truck at your local fair? Same venue the negative camber Boyz do to their import vehicles. Keep your bearings centered in the rim and throw wheels spacers in the trash where they belong. Off Set rims are available but increase the load on a wheel bearing.

I'm ashamed that I kind of like that. One ridiculous tip is too much but somehow two wrongs kind of make a right.
