Hi there,

I am wondering if anyone can advise me if the wheel arch in a 4 & 6 cylinder LC torana is the same. I have heard that they are smaller by 4 or so inches in a 4cyl.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm pretty sure that they are the same. 4 Inches is a pretty noticeable difference.

I'm not 100%, although I'm almost completely certain that they are the same.

So because ours arent, does this mean the panel beater has stuffed up?

I do know the 4cyl had smaller wheels, and a smaller diff. So its 100% they're the same?

4 Cylinder Fire wall is different to a 6. Otherwise everything else rearwards is the same except for trailing arm mounts and hand brake cable brackets.
