36" on RR
Posted: Mon Nov 29, 2004 9:29 pm
I am looking to up size my tyres from 9/34's actual 32.8 on a 40mm body lift that rub on fullstuff at the rear on the top of the inner guard, and at the front they rub on the fire wall opposite my feet.
Increasing the body lift by say 25mm will help the rear but not do as much to the front.
I have seen ads for longer front radius arms for nissans to allow fitment of larger tyres as they seem to suffer the same problem. But I thought that this would upset all the other geometery ie, panhard rod,spring perch location,bump stops and other arc of travel stuff. As if it isn't a great problem I could lengthen the radius arms or put in a couple of extra washers at the chassis end as i've got about 20mm of thread protruding on the radius armwhere they bolt to the chassis.
What I would like to acheive is q78's with minimal body lift /maximum up travel
If anyone can enlighten me on the previously mentioned quandary that I find myself in I will have a quiet word in my good friend santa's ear to look favourably upon them in the upcoming festive season, even if you haven't been good
