bit of a squeeze i have about 3mm clearance i;ve still got camping gear to put in so should gaine a bit more
its clearence no less .like you say engine and box will lay the top of the wheel in

studs were the longer type
ps.
when i let the jack down tyre did catch the arch but once it was down it was clear

...and do the studs knock out and can be knocked in with a hammer or do you need a press?

Cheers
