View Full Version : Front quick jack holes

On my body, the DS quick jack holes are spaced vertically at 2-1/4" (matching the chassis holes), but the PS are at 2", maybe a tad less.

Not a huge deal, but it will probably cause the grommets to squeeze a bit. And it's nothing that can't be addressed at body/paint time.

Anyone else have this issue?

If you're using the grommets from metro moulded parts, there's actually quite a bit you need to open up on the body to get them in place. Use a dremel and take your time. You'll be able to make up for the 1/4" while opening the body holes up.

Unfortunately I didn't notice the spacing until after I opened up the holes, but to your point I can probably massage it a bit more when I drop the body back on and see what I'm dealing with. In the grand scheme, it's not a big issue.

EDIT: I will likely end up eliminating the quick jacks anyway, so this exercise is primarily for body positioning.
