Just purchased used pierce, 2012 clamped, came with book which says measurement from rear shock mounts c/c 38 1/2 inches mine measures 36 1/2. Measurement from rotor to shock mount on each side should be 7 1/2. Mine measures 8 1/2 ..Basically mine are 1 inch too far in each side. Is this acceptable or do I need to weld plugs in housing and relocate over 1 inch.

I moved them out as per book. While moving I was surprised at how much inch made to springs and shock travel. Especially LR . All the paint was rubbed off door cage behind driver from too much travel. With left fully extended and jack under RR it had couple inches clearance now. Do I need to start with any LR lead or run straight up as it is currently set.
