Hi Larry, Thanks for the reply. Would you let me know what the diameter o r radius of your 14" tire is? A friend has a 62 sport conv. with 14" tires and the radius is 13" The radius on my H tires is 14-1/2". The difference of 1-1/2 " would increase your 9" measurement to 10-1/2" which is close to the 11" on my H2 .

It measured exactly 9" with 14 inch tires, original leaf springs and new original replacement hydraulic shocks. I'm not exactly sure what this information means, but I thought I would pass it on to you. I would be interested in learning what conclusion, if any, that you ultimately came to. Good luck with your results, Larry Phillips Avon, CT From: "2HsandaHeritage@xxxxxxxxxxx" <2HsandaHeritage@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: Chrysler 300 Club International <Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, May 20, 2010 3:56:22 PM Subject: [Chrysler300] 300H Clearance Difference Hi Group, I have a 2 inch difference in the height measurement from my garage floor to the horizontal bottom of the rocker panels on my two H's. Both cars have 15" wheels and identical 235-75R-15 tires. H1 was built in April 1962, has new Eaton springs and KYB gas shocks. It has an average height measurement of 9 inches. H2 was built in November 1961, has original springs (possibly re-tempered), and new original equipment hydraulic shocks. It has an average height measurement of 11 inches. Did something in the manufacturing process change from November 61 to April 62?
