I have a problem moving the rear axle of my 4/4 Sport 2014 backwards. I purchased the set required from Mulberry and thought it was an easy job for a Saturday. I have to admit that I did not check up front how the construction looked like on my Morgan. It turned out that my Morgan has the very thick blocks between the leaf spring and the axle. The set from Mulberry contains the thinner blocks. The Mulberry set moves the axle back by 15 mm. On my Morgan that turned out to be impossible, because the dif touches the petrol tank. The space between the dif and the tank is only 10 mm. Mulberry did not have a quick solution for this problem, luckely I could return the set. I also checked if I could move the petrol tank further backwards, but that is not possible because at the back it sits against a transverse chassis bar.

The reason I want to move the axle backwards is, because I have wider tires (Vredestein Classic Sprint 185 in stead of the Conti 165), touching the fenders and damaging the paint. I also think that moving the wheel in the middle of the fender arch looks nicer. I am curious if somebody has solved this "problem", or has an idea for a, not too complicated, solution.
