Front will be tight. Rear will be tight. A lot will depend on tire size, ride height, alignmnet specs and how accurately the flairs were welded on.

Cheers

Thanks Jeff.
Is there a tool/calculator you used to figure it out?

Your oil line might be an inside clearance issue.

If you have an inside tire clearance issue, I offer "up & over" custom Oil Hoses that will fix this....







Please email me for details.
