Just tried both fronts on
it only catches the plastic trim when you turn the wheel to steer
like the noise you got with a lolly stick in the spokes of your Raleigh Grifter

I thinks a trim with the grinder and an inch or two on the body should sort it for off road

Going to do the grinder thing first if i can get a spare set of wings as these ones are too good to chop

Spring lift won't give you any more clearance over standard unless you fit massive bump stops too, only a body lift truly gives extra clearance without having to compromise suspension articulation.

Looks like it has at the top. and it's almost a climb in to the cab now.

32" tyres to 37" tyres has given an extra 2.5" between the road and the axel

the only issue I have now is clearance to the rear of the front arch on turning every thing else is clear. Untill I hit a bump and then tha rear of the front arches will need taking back a bit

the new springs took it to standard +45mm

Well after another day of chuffin' on, I have decided not to butcher the arches
as you can see it would be criminal to take a grinder to these

So I looked in the garage and found a tin of Hammerite, Green but it will be hidden and stop the tin worm, slapped a bit about in side the arches and put it back together again
