Best wishes for the new year to everyone. just wondering if anybody can help me solve a problem. I have a Hr front end with 2 in stubtech drop spindles, HQ rotors , HQ calipers ,HQ steel rims, HR steering arms. There is 2 problems 1. the tie rod ends are mm's away from the tyres .2. the tyres are hitting on the gauards when you turn. Any ideas Gents. Is there some other steering arm that can be used, and if I get P76 rotors will that help with the tyre scrub.

Machine some spacers up for between the steering arm and the stub axle,or fit narrower wheels and tyres.

if your using the original steering box get some hk steering arms. use 14" 60 series tyers.

P76 rotors won't help as what ever it moves away from the guard it will move towards the as mentioned close tie rod end, skinnier wheels and bash or cut away the guard lip

thanks gents , is it possible to get a skinnier steel HQ stud pattern rim ? I have HT on the back which I noticed are skinnier than the HQ

depends which one you have there is a 5" HQ rim and a 6" HQ rim

excuse my ignorance gents but i though the rims only came in 6 inch . now i am on the hunt for 2 - 5 inch rims , should solve a lot of problems. many thanks gents

mainly kingswoods belmonts had the 5's statesmans 1 tonners etc had 6's as far as i know

use short hq / wb steering arms

thanks fellas should have it sorted with all that good info Happy New Year
