the body work on the flares is done and it's time to build the rotiss. and get the pans replaced.
Engine stands are sweet so its time for some metal and bottle jacks. Also I had to see one side of the car with it's shoes. Pinch me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |

hello Group,
I purchase some 944 3/4" spacers for the front and it kicks the wheel out perfect for the flares. Thats alot hanging out there with the stock spacer already, Am I safe to buy longer studs and go with it or is there another stronger/safer way to go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Thanks in advance!!! |

I'm using 944 spacers as well. My friend races a ford cobra with 3" of spacers on each wheel so I'm thinking we're ok. |
