> I have a 73 with the long spacer and it is definitely flattened over the years.
> There is barely room for the brake lines to pass between the frame and the body panels.
> From first glance, they look ok, but that is because they got squished out.
> I know the body has dropped because the top of the black tank was crushed in from the hard mounted toilet flange.
> There was no slip fitting, or o-ring, just a threaded drain pipe.
> I will be replacing the pads as soon as weather permits.
