How can I adjust wheelbase?

You could add a thick washer behind the strut rod bushing, that would move the LCA back to help the tire clear the fender, then readjust the alignment

I was thinking about doing that. it seems like the thickness of a couple washers behind the rear strut rod bushing would not move much at the wheel? I've only got about a half inch between the tire and the edge of the fender on the right side, compared to almost 2" on the left side.....

Is there any "trick" to removing the strut rod without having to pull the torsion bar and LCA out?
