    You could definitely run some bigger tires with little modification. You have tube fenders up front. Make us some for the rear and I'm sure you would have at least two sets sold. One to me and on to Sal

    I thought the metal wheel well was too small, is it just the plastic getting in the way?

    Cool. Let's us know how they work out for you. I'm not impressed with the ball joints that came on my LCAs. I might eventually swap them out with MOOG.

    I probably should have phrased that differently. The ball joints are fine. The boots are garbage.

    I still have my old LCA's sitting on the garage floor. I was thinking about rebuilding mine too so I can swap them in when the new ones are shot.
