Eugen , almost every classic car (Pantera) which  came from the USA needs a replacement of all the 16 A arm bushings and all 8 ball joints , that is the first to do . Sometimes the bushes looks ok , but after dismantling the A arms you notice they are gone or sloppy.

After the bushings are replaced you have a good start for adjust the suspension to the right dimensions.

The spacers , you can buy them whit a big center hole, or whit 60 mm center hole must be machined to 62 mm to fit the center wheelhub from the Pantera ( my favorite)

Dont want to push you to do what I always do , but it's my experience.

Simon,
thanks, yes, the bushings are on my to do list - just waiting for the shipment. Looking forward to this work, great fun from what I read :-)
The ball joints seem to be quite new.
