Default Had ERA fix body to clear 17" tires and rims

Omathisen Era fixed my body for clearance on 335/35R17" Pilots for the car. 245/40R17" in the fronts. I have chassis # 428. Springs and shocks where changed to handle the better performance these tires give over the 15" BFG I started with. I have no rubbing issues with the car. I do sit low to the ground. 4.1/2" is clearance at each corner of the frame behind the front tires and ahead of the rear ones. As long has there is no excessive play in the front rotor bearings or A arms bushings. I get no rub. The same applys for the rearend and the out board housing have little hub play. I do recomend many coats of undercoating to portect the paint from getting stars in it. Snake skin works good too. about 3/8" thick. Rick L.
