Shell Valley Body Install Problems

[Steve Emerson]

ACC427US,
I'm new to the site and have a Shell Valley Cobra. I also had the same problem with the rear wheelwells. The right rear was about 1 to 1 and 1/2 inch higher than the left. In fact, when I drove it for the first time, the left rear tire drug on the
top of the wheelwell. I tried compensating with the adjustment of the coilovers and have been somewhat successful. I have about 1 and1/2 inch of threads showing below the nut on the left shock, and 1/2 inch on the right. The right side still has 1/2 inch more clearance than the left but the left no longer drags (except momentarily when I go over big bump).
I too considered trying to shim up the body but decided there would be a visible angle formed between the rear bottom
edge of the body and the edge of the frame below it. I have been meaning to talk to Shell Valley about this but haven't
as yet. Have you? I have been concerned that the difference in the ajustment of the shocks might affect handling and
left versus right rear wheel traction. Doesn't it tend to wedge the rear like the circle track boys do? Any ideas on this?
