Sorry, canāt help myself from being a dick at times. Youāre welcome!
Changing wheel offset will change scrub radius, which canāt be fixed with an alignment. It mostly affects steering feel, but itās a bronco, not a race car. Slap them wheels on and be done.
Height is definitely the major contributor. Iām 6ft and make an effort to avoid squashing the bolsters. My wife is 5ā2 and slithers out. Now she has a 2010 LR4 that feels like Iām falling down in to when I get in. Weāll see how long that seat lasts š
Adding preload reduces down/droop travel, which can cause an earlier top out in suspension stroke, which doesnāt feel good. Thatās a āharshnessā it can create. Itās also horrible for a bypass style shock that relies on a factory set ride zone. Add preload (via spacer or some garbage) and push it...
Iām in Massachusetts as well and found them in the marketplace on here. The guy was willing to ship and I was willing to pay. He had some perks with the shipper so I think I only paid 1,200 shipped. He was out west.
