Fellow enthusiasts,
I am continuing to search for the source of my tub tilt. Several people
have offered suggestions (thanks!) and Gary says he has the same problem
but on the passenger side....
Question: Where can I support the suspension at each wheel (without the
tires in place) so that I can measure the geometry of the suspension
components? I'm a little reluctant to just put a concrete block under the
lower wishbones and trailing arms.
Status of tub-tilt:
Additional measurements chasing my tub-tilt problem (warning: the
following table may not be readable with proportional fonts):
Measurement (inches above floor) Pass. Driver Pass-Driver
Rear suspension:
Bottom of frame at attachment of 6 3/8 5 5/8 + 3/4
outer trail arm
Front suspension:
Center of trunnion pivot bolt 8 3/16 8 3/8 - 3/16
Bottom of frame at front 5 5/16 5 1/8 + 3/16
suspension tower (between welds)
Center of upper fulcrum pivot 19 5/8 19 1/2 + 1/8
Comments and Questions:
- The tilt is much greater at the rear (I have new springs and poly
bushings, however)
- Oddly the trunnion pivot is higher on the driver's side. I'll check the
tire pressure
- I may swap the springs on the left and right sides (but what a pain...)
- Can anyone confirm which, if either, side is the correct height?
TIA,
