    Rear tire to body clearance

    I’m finishing some final touches on the car and I’m aware as I drive that things settle in. I’m looking at the rear wheel to fender clearance and I noticed that with the chassis set at 4.75” in the rear that the drivers side is closer then I expected. Measuring from the bottom of the fender lip to the tire I get a minimum clearance of 40 mm or 1.57”. Does any one know how much a solid axle cars rear suspension travels?
