Default Re: '40 rear fender rub one side only

Day 2 (?) Report:

Someone had asked about something near the fuel filter that was maybe a suspension piece. It's not, it's either fuel line or fuel gauge wire. I checked up and around that area and there are no suspension parts like you were describing.


Regarding the shocks, I'm glad a couple of you mentioned that. When I got under there I did think they were fairly horizontal. I can see a spot where I could bolt them more vertical, but I'll need to get the exhaust re-routed. While I can turn a wrench or wire a relay, I'm not a cutter/welder! I do think that's a project to do down the line, though, so thank you for calling it out.

There was also a request for pictures of the fender and tire. Take a look at those on this post. For reference there's also one picture of the right rear tire's fender gap.

Thanks everyone!
