    15x7 steelies question

    Using your strut rods to push the lower control arms back can cause binding, you will blow out your LCA bushings and the pivot shafts can wear a grove into the kmember over time. Now that being said you can adjust the strut rods to push the lower control arms back you just have to make sure you...

    Exhaust for a slant

    I wouldnt do dual exhaust unless you so everything else. like oversized valves, ported head, bored cylinders, a good two or 4 bbl carb/ aluminum intake, and of course a good cam. Unless you do all that it would be pointless to go dual exhaust or even large diameter single. Stock these engines...

    Axle Question???

    Since the center pin "floats" it will need contact with that pin huh. or is some clearance between the pin and the axle ok?

    Axle Question???

    How would I go about knowing if one axle tube is shorter than the other. It seems like since I will be using green bearings maybe I will order them stock and grind the difference off... Bad Idea?

    Axle Question???

    how should I go about measuring for correct axle size. If what youare saying is correct... the axles shouldn't push on the pin then 1/16 shorter on each axle should be ok right?

    Axle Question???

    I guess my real question is how much room is there between the axles and the carrier pin. I hope I can use the stock axles with the green bearings.

    Purchased 8 3/4 rear I need some help

    I saw that to its just dust I wiped it and the color is even. I think he did an "OK" job welding it just the clean up was not done. Sometimes an ugly weld is a good weld. I emphasize the sometimes. We'll see though. I did pop the slag out of the bearing and seal hub. wasnt as bad as I thought...
