      I am fortunate that some suppliers have shared their CAD data with me, saves a lot of time. But you are right, I like a lot of detail.

      Do you mean towards the frame or towards the spindle? I like to keep the front and rear coil-overs as close to the wheel as practical, and then tip the top of the shock in towards the frame 5 degrees. I think the shock and spring can do a better job if they are closer to the wheel / tire (at the expense of higher shock travel and larger upper brackets in the case of the front) It's a balancing act.



      I probably could go another inch or so wider on the rear:





      Do you have a different thought on shock and spring location relative to wheel location for conventionally mounted shocks and springs?
