Ah-ha!  This raises the need to also procure/produce a copy of that
extended bar that kicks the rear of the sliding door out farther when
fully opened. Adds the advantage of being able to put on really wide
tires in the rear without sliding door interference.

Hmmm,. This project gets more complicated all the time.

I think I will just switch to 15 inch rims and call it good.
