My 69gt Project

removed the small rear end, replaced with 8 3/4 out of a b-body, did not have to move the leafs to run the 5.5BS rim.

Did move the spring perches in on the rear end though. about 1.5 inches on each side to match the stock leaf location.

going to have to remove a little bit of the lip on the fender.

I could go to a smaller sidewall tire but the 245/60 looks awesome under it.
