**dennislbrooks** · 09-19-2020, 07:53 AM

Does anyone know of a 65 inch to 66 inch wheel mount to wheel mount GM 6 lug axle that can be converted to replace a leaf spring 12 bolt that is 62 inch?

I am not sure of the widths of the newer like 1988 - 2007 or so. I will need a 3.73. I can remove/replace perches and shock mounts and can usually overcome e-brake obstacles. I want rear drum.

thanks
