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.

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
