Wheel Arch Height
 
Hi Guys,
I'm building a cobra chassis from scratch and I need to know the height of from the top of the wheel arch to the ground at the front and the rear,
If a few of you could measure and let me know I'll take an average and I can weld in my diff brackets and start planning my suspension, 2 mins of your time would really help me out
thanks
Tony

P.S. if any of you have any cobra wheels sitting in the back of your shed let me know, as I'm looking for some halibrands or simmons, of the usual sizes, 15,16,17 x8 - 10's

Do you know what body yours has been flopped from? Or which make your body resembles the most.

There is just so much variance in these areas that it would make a big difference in getting measurements. And we are not just taking guard differences, but seriously different in dimensions & proportions. Some of our most popular makes are the most wildly different. Just line up a DRB, Harrison & Classic Revival.

You might also want people to specify what tyre size they have front & back with those guard measurements. That will tell you the centre-line of the axles, gap between guard & tyre etc etc.

Thanks, Its an Adelaide Classic body, The calcs I've done show a large ground clearance, I suppose the 4" side pipes help make it look lower?
