CV Angles for Stock FX4 & Tremor: What Are They?

[Mad German]

I test drove a TRD Off Road, Ranger FX4, and a ZR2 yesterday. I noticed that the CV angles on the TRD we’re close to flat/zero. I didn’t check the ZR2 or Ranger; it didn’t occur to me during those test drives).

Are the CV angles on a stock Tremor or FX4 close to flat/zero as well? I doubt I’ll ever lift or level the Ranger (if I buy one), but I’m “concerned” about the CV angles as a possible issue down the road if they’re not flat like the TRD.

Thanks for any info you guys can offer.

I can't answer your question because I don't remember how mine were before I "leveled" my truck. I am considering a diff. lowering kit though for my Ranger to lower the diff. and decrease the angle. My lift is about 3.5" up front (3.75" on the Eibach kit, but the bumper/winch weight took about 0.25" of that out).

Can you show me what your CV angles look like now, after the lift?

Sure thing! When I get home I'll snag a pic.
