What’s up guys and gals in the process of getting parts together for the swinger. I know the best way to determine is to measure and see but the car is in pieces and i can kind of set up things to make things fit if necessary. To start the car is a 1973 dart swinger. I am going to run a ford 8.8 with the one side cut down so the axles will be the same side. From my understanding this brings the axle to within an inch of a stock a body rear. I’m going to have leaf spring rear and I can move them in a 1/2 inch if necessary while building it with out an issue. The front suspension I’m going to be getting upgraded parts from Bergman auto sports
The wheels I am looking to get are
are 17x8. The rears are 0 offset/4.5” backspace. The fronts are +38mm offset/6” backspace and a 1/2” spacer in the front
The tires are Falken Azenis RT660 rear 245/45/17s. Fronts are 245/40/17
I don’t mind needing spacers if necessary either. The main thing is I just wanted to get some input some from knowledgeable people. I am 98% sure they will fit from my reading and searching threads but I know the dart sport had a little more room in the rear so just trying to confirm
appreciate the help
Thank you
