Could someone measure between shock absorber centres from inside the boot for me please so I have a reference for final fit of my inner arches?
I seriously doubt it! |

Had seen this question before from someone and saw this had been posted... "apparently 38 1/2 inches is the manufacture standard, thats 977mm" Edited by RandyBumGardener on 6th Jan, 2014. Hmmm, Well that's a strange noise O.O |

From a very quick measurement in fading light (I've only just got in) I also get approx 38 1/2" (I measured imperial as I assume that's how it started life).

Nice one cheers chaps. So mine should be 39 1/2" then as my centres are 1/2" different each side I seriously doubt it! |

Are they not more inboard? Rather than outwards? Drives

maybe further out due to the centring of the shock stud in the top plate on the shock ? Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM |

I'll do it more accurately tommorow in good light. Re-checked in good daylight once the rain stopped pissing down.... 38 1/2" or, at worst, 1/16" less, bit difficult to be 100% accurate as this is a totally bare shell I measured, no damper studs sticking up, just measuring from bits of wooden dowel shoved in the holes. Shell has no obvious accident damage in those areas so should be reasonably true (well, as good as Leyland ever made them....) Purely out of interest, why do you set yours 1" different ?

I'm under the assumption he span the coilover 180 degrees coupled with his new arches and turrets for better clearance etc. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

The coilovers are modified to move the offset pins to the centre. In the 13's at last!.. Just |

As Mr. Lizard says Im making new top hats for the coilovers which keep the coil in the same place but the pin is now central. Its 1/2" difference each side.
