Default modern tube shocks




I plan to put tube shocks on the front of my A and in looking in the catalogs at the way the front adapter clamps around the front axle I'm not aure if I am going to enough clearance between the steering arm (hoop style since I am using hydraulics-- ) and the shock or the adapter---- the steering arm is pretty close to the perch as is with not a lot of clearance -----anybody have experience or suggestions for a lower mount-----thanks
