I would bet tha rear axle is going to have to move quite some way for the prop to make contact with the chassis.

And quite unlikely to move that way unless airborne. Much more likely that weight in the vehicle will move it up.

So what you are saying is no Dukes of Hazzard driving? but maybe okay if Daisy is allowed to drive.

That is exactly what my mate said (a mechanic of 30years plus) he said it’s probably designed to sit lower to allow for a heavy load on the rear leaf springs and allow the prop to move up.

Thanks all for your responses
Probably being over cautious here.
