I have a problem with the front tires and need some help. My front tires rub in the rear and hit the fenders when I turn the wheel.
The car has disc brake conversion from 73 and up car that came off a dart. Has anyone had this problem before? On the ground the car has about 3/4” behind the tire and 2.5” in front. Tires are a 215/70/15.
We used the urathane bushing on the lower control arms and it appears to be really thick. On the passenger side it doesn’t look like it’s seated forward as much as it should be. Is it possible the strut rods are to long? They came with the car so not sure why they would be but it almost seems like it. The tortion bars seem like they are seated ok, might be able to move forward a little if I cut them down? Is it possible the ball joints are to long, maybe the knuckles are flipped drivers to passenger side?What’s everyone’s thoughts.
