Help Please!
Hey guys, here's my issue. I have a 69 Nova that last summer had stock disc brakes in front, and drums in the rear. The front wheels are 17x7's and it was lowered with springs. Last fall I tore it apart to rebuild the front suspension as well as put an LS motor. Anyway, I rebuilt the stock arms, got a good deal on qa1 coilovers, and the cpp c5 big brake kit. I put it all together and now my wheels hit the tie rod. Talking with cpp, the kit is based off stock Nova drum measurements, which is stupid anyway, but consequently it moves everything in 7/16". So to figure out how much spacing I need, I have 3/8" worth of spacing on the wheel side, and about 1/4" of spacing on the steering arms. Obviously I am not going to run it this way, but I am looking for suggestions to cure this problem without having to order new wheels. I bought the middle length steering arms from cpp, however that didn't help any. So, any ideas or suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thanks
