The special body I built 30 years ago is going to a friend's son and I'm having another go. Last time I was very conservative with the clearance above the diff and axle. I'm wanting to have a go at trials so can't get too close, but I'm also content for this to be a Mk1 and rework or remake entirely if I've cut it too fine.
"Diff to floor" is an easy one to understand. "Axle tube to body side" depends on the width to make sense, but "tyre to mudguard" is easy enough to all be "on the same page".
1 - what was the range for those two measurements on factory bodies?
2 - how much clearance have the trials brigade found they've needed?
