Yes. The master & standard are different sizes. Give me a PM with your phone number & I can call you about 7pm your time. I have both at home.

If you've had the body off the car for restoration, you may want to double check that all the correct blocks and shims went back in when the body went back onto the frame.

All the Best, Chip
