Stance problem (KYB)

[TiDi]

Hey buddy....car looks good!
I don't think I would mess with your stance....it looks fine to me.

I think '67's sort of sit soft in the ass end stock. My memory is bad, but isn't the spring rate softer anyway on '67? They utilized a Z-bar to assist the torsion bars under load. Also, not sure about this, but '67's use longer axles and tubes. When I converted my '67 to short axle and tubes, without adjusting torsion springs, my car gained about 1/4" in height and went a little more positive camber.
Personally, for safety's sake, a smidge of negative camber isn't a bad thing.

Car looks fantastic, man. Of course, I'm partial to '67's!!!

Hey Jim I'm doing the same thing on my 67 (converting to short axle)
I found a 63 transaxles with axles and tubes (shorter than 67) ......

Can I put all the stuff on without problems?

Thanx a lot

When you chance the 165's for the 205's, you lost your negative camber.. I think..

Tires will not change the camber, only readjusting the spring plates will do that (or coilovers).

yeah, so i'll have get at it some time to figure out how to raise it at least an inch...

Hi, not sure if you realise but your posts sometimes come across as a little, ahem, abrupt. I am sure no-one intends to mention something that displeases you.

heydon, i'm quite sure this is a misunderstanding. i meant to say that will have to sit down next to my bug and figure out how to raise the rear end. i don't mean to sound rude if that is what you mean.

either way, my apologies to everyone. and so far no one on here has ever said anything that displeased me.

peace out

Maybe take into account the fact that there are a lot of people on this forum who don't have English as their native language?

(Especially the Americans! )

The fact that many write it better than some of those who do may mean sometimes people forget that!
