What is the backspacing on those AVEs to fit a 14.5 wide tire under a JK. Is still 5" of BS.

Pintlers have 4.7" of backspacing without spacers. I too would like to know what needs to be done to run 38x14.50 with a TF 4" L/A on AEV Beadlocks.

What bs total are you using? Factory axles? Steering stop adjustments?

Didn't need ant steer stops.
I thought inner sleeves were more effective than outer shells? Is this not accurate?
