hotchkis trailing arms

[Robert Youngfleisch]

Hello
i am building a 68 Chevelle. It a frame off resto.
I install the suspension with the body of the frame, in the rear I used hotchkis rear suspension kit (upper & lower control arms, trailing arms, swaybar & coils) when i put the body back on the frame the trailing arms are touching the body.
Does any one know if this is supposed to do that?

Thanks in advanced

here is a dumb but obvious question.... do you have the body mount bushings inatalled, and are they stock height or worn down?

[Robert Youngfleisch]

Brand new & stock height

If your sure the body is in the correct location, I would take a pipe in the same area, and hammer it into that area of the floor pan to make the necessary clearance.

Nothing ever fits my car without custom fab work either.
