I was outside last night taking some measurements on my GN so I could order some wheel spacers to move my GTA wheels out a bit. Bruce Plecan had suggested using 1.25" thick spacers, but the problem that I foresee is tire to outer lip clearance.
I placed a straight edge along the tire and made sure it was 90° to the ground. I thin measured from the straight edge to the wheel lip. I found that I have 1.5" on the driver side and .75" on the passenger side. The body seems to be shifted on the frame. I would like to correct this. Have any of you run into this problem and were you able to correct it? I have friends with older A bodies that are like this. I am planning to replace all of the body bushings in the next few weeks. Anyone have any suggestions?
