Two Wally Day at Bakersfield Divisional

[max512wedge]

The rims are 10 inch with 5 inch back spacing.

The springs and factory hangers are in stock location.

Stock Wheel Tubs with no massaging done or hammer work.

The springs/Bars are made you our friend John Calvert (Calvert Racing).

They do make a narrower A Body spring but we do not require it.



When we raced a 68 Dart GTS we did run the narrower spring because
the 13 cross section Slicks were a pain on that body.

Trick: We run a E Body OEM rear shackle that looks factory on our
A body BUT is longer (Don't tell NHRA).

No rubbing or issues observed.

GTX JOHN is actually John Irving and my
boy is Jon Irving.

Jesus is the God of the Rough and Tumble,
just as much as the Quiet and Peaceful Places on Earth!

What size tire was you able to run.

Thanks for the info. I didn’t think you could fit that size tire without mini tubing. Hopefully I can get my car out there to Famosa next year.

Congratulations to you both. That's got to be great fun at the track when you and your son both win your class.

What size tire was you able to run.

On our street/strip (9Sec on 125 shot) 360 duster we run 10.5 with the offset
spring kit that allows another 1/2 inch or so with stock
width springs.

On the 10.5 size rim what’s the back space for it. Do you also any pictures of the side and front view. Thanks Bill.

10 x 15 with 5 inch back spacing with A body width

I am not near the car (Consulting out of State) but there are a lot of pictures
of our cars on the internet.
