Bob,

Raising the engine trans was never an option. The body's channeled over the frame, and I had major tunnel/firewall work as it was (remember the Gibbon post?)

Robot,

The back tire is only 26.6, so it would probably look odd. I'm not worried about the rake, though. If I raise the axle centerline by 2", and drop the coil-overs by an inch or so, I only net 1" off the rake. Oh, and flipping the axle can't work.

Maybe I'll go with 205/65's. They're blackwalls, and that gives me 4.5" under the pan if I don't adjust the shocks. 4" if I do.

The whole problem here is with tire height - both front and rear. I went with what worked on my model "A", and it's not working on this one. I need a taller tire in the rear also. The 295/50-15 doesn't fill up the rear fender area.

What I really need is a par of Hoosier 25 x 7.50 radials on the front, and 29 x 15.50's on the rear. But that's about 10 Ben Franklins.

Anybody need a matched set of Firehawk big 'n littles . . . .
