    tunnel clearance

     



    Hi all,
    looking for some advice, I am fabbing a floor and trans tunnel for a 1929 model a project, I need some advice as far as clearance between the sides of the drive shaft and the tunnel, the body is channeled 4 inches so the tunnel is pretty tall, the rearend is a ford 8.8 with coilovers and will have a panhard bar and has a four link set up, not sure how much side to side movement to expect any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks

    Some mistakes are too much fun to be made only once.

    How long is your panhard bar, what angle are your coil-over, and what is their total travel? I can calculate sided to side with those numbers.
