Dear, the parts I just sold paid for that part ;)  Group: Members Posts: 1,568 Joined: 26-December 02 From: Williamsburg, VA Member No.: 16  |
I have glass flares on my '73 and need to set the height of the frontend. The PO installed rack spacers so he must of had it low.??
Since flare heights can vary from instal to install is there another location I can use to get a starting point height? Since the height affects the alignment I don't want to het it aligned until I have the height someone correct, if not 100% correct. Someone please measure you flared car for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) at Hershey if you do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Cheers |

I believe that factory measurement is center line of the torsion bar...It is a PITA to do it this way, but would assure you that any body work mods would not influence your measurements.
there is a great Race shop in Vienna VA... They, as brad have several 914's... Also, check your regional PCA group, I know there are several 914 racers in VA and two Guru,s nearby... Brad, Love the flag,,,cant decide..mmmmm stripes or stars.... |
