Title: ElDorado measurement needed for car hauler
Post by: Jeff Wilk on November 12, 2015, 07:17:51 PM
Anybody out there with access to their 75 or 76 Eldorado? I am looking at 8.5 foot enclosed car hauler's and need to know to dimensions. What is the total width of the El Dorado at the outside of the tires/wheels? Also what is the clearance from the ground when the doors are opened?  I am trying to determine if the particular hauler I am looking at will fit the El Dorado based on the interior wheel wells of the hauler or not. Thanks for the measurements. Much appreciated

Ride height can vary on these depending on the tires and how well the air ride works or does not work so you need to keep those variables in mind.

Great point on the air ride!!!!

Can someone educate me though on the "Track" measurement below?  Is that from the outside walls of the tires side to side or the inside wall or dead center to dead center of each tire?

The track is from the dead center from one tire to the dead center to the other tire.
