Good morning. There is a bright orange yellow orb in the sky over Southern California right now. Quite welcome to see it, but I digress.
The 1974 Arizona car has uneven tire to fender clearance from side to side. The tires are the same make and size, it has the same rims on it, but I have about one fingers worth of clearance on the driver side to the tire wall but basically none on the passenger side. I don’t have a history on the car but the tub is straight and does not evidence any accidents. I haven’t put the car up on a rack to check the alignment but it doesn’t look like the rear camber is noticeably different from side to side. Any ideas to share? Thanks! |

Thanks for all of the responses, including @SirAndy who replied on my duplicate post.
The driver side fender has been rolled, I don’t think the passenger side has. Let me double check that and then get the car up in the air and see what I find. I was going to rebuild the front and rear suspension on this car anyway so thanks to whatever ones posted I will lower my heart rate and chill out until all that is done. If I still have an issue after all of that then I reserve the right to freak out, ha. Thanks again for all of the great information and fast response |
