Shaun - for the control arm, how ‘short’ can the heims be adjusted vs the stock arm? I have a bit of a mess going on in the shock tower, the PO added some odd bracing, that isn‘t helping my suspension geometry. The added rectangular plate is pushing the upper control arm further out. Secondly, that lower brace is preventing me from doing the 1” drop.
This wasn’t noticeable with my skinny tires, but now with 235s, I’m getting some rubbing, even with the fenders rolled flat.
I know long term, the shock tower needs to be cleaned up, but was thinking that if for now, I can run the shorter upper arm, at least I could avoid the rub, and maybe get a reasonable alignment.
It’s a 1968, running new stock upper and lower control arms, Drake perches, Drake 1” springs with half coil cut, stock strut rods. Thanks in advance!
