    No Jax tyres in WA unfortunately.
    Here you go, no castor correction or scrubbing.



    Basically I made a small cut in the mudflap to slip it behind the bracket and put the screw in from behind.



    Gap on full lock.

    Thanks for the pics, I'll see how she goes once I've got the new rubber fitted and do similar if it needs it.

    Have you had the castor correction done, if not how is the handling with 33's on?

    I'll have to mod the mud flaps. Had the 33's fitted yesterday on the factory +10 offset, 17" alloys, and she rubs on full lock. I've just removed them for now and will have a look at it on the weekend.

    Two options. Remove the front mudflaps, or mod them. Or buy 10mm radius arm spacers. This will push the front axle 10mm forward. Id rather this over offset bushes any day. Plus cheaper and easier to fit.

    It doesn't take too long for the rubber to wear down a little ... no more rubbing after that, till you put new tyres on again
