Technical FULL FENDERED 28-29 Ford Running board question

If you have a 28-29 Ford that is FULL FENDERED and has a nice looking rake what is the distance street to the front & rear running board brackets? Got a bare frame no axles, just wondering what those dimensions will be. Thanks. Bob

Hi Bob,
on my Sport Coupe in avatar it's 5 1/2" front and 6 1/2" rear. Tire size 165/65 ×15 And 255/70 × 15. Hope it helps. Phill.

 

Thanks! That gives me something to work with, want to set the ch***is on blocks or jack stands, looks a bit low with just one inch clearance. Bob

 

Something I do to save my shins is slide and tape a piece of radiator hose over the ends of the brackets.

 

It has a lot more than 1" of clearance. Those measurements are under the running board brackets. Lowest part on the car is under the middle of the front axle at 4 1/4". Nothing hangs belo6the running boards.
Phill.

 

Good tip, but they will be shelf brackets for the life of the project. Bob
