As we haven't finished the body work and paint on the fenders they are not currently on the car so I was hoping I'd at least be able to get an idea where to measure other than fender line. Maybe I'll set on ground at full height, measure and then do same at lowest height to get an approximate height to shoot for around 50%. I should then at least be able to see how much work to inner fender I need to do and whether I need to roll outer only, or possible do slight trimming.
You mentioned you went with -1.5 camber, +6 caster, and I think +1/8 toe and it was recommended by Rod. How is your tire wear with that setup? It seems that would be more for autocross rather than street. Any thoughts or changes you are considering
thanks, Jake

Yes that should be a Track/AutoX start setup I imagine. I haven't driven mine that much yet. Maybe 500 miles. I will move mine back to a street setting this spring. What would I change? Nothing really. I do want to move my subframe forward more. I think mine was probably way back when the guy I bought it from welded in the subframe connectors. I'll also be pulling the subframe out, re welding the factory welds. Also plan on adding something like Global Wests forward bars, of my own design. I do wish I had the new cross shafts which come in the new kits that allow easy caster adjustments via offset slugs, but there's no way in Hates I'll buy something from them that should've came in my kit. The adjustable cross shafts were out prior to my order. Aggrevating! Lol. Which is why I'm coming up with something different from Ridetech's system on my air ride controls.
