Rear suspension problem

[Jimmyd]

Pagen,

Have you checked the book amendments, the original version required shortened drive shafts but the wishbones where then modified to allow fitting of the original unmodified shafts.

And don't forget that when all bolted up the CV joints will be compressed so while sitting "free" they will measure longer.

I hope that solves your problem as I've only speed read your post!!!
