Re: 1969 Short Wide

I've been seeing your IG pics, but reading the details on here makes it that much better. Looks great Mike!

By the way, I don't know if the 73 up axles are wider than the 71-72, but I have 295's on my 20x10 with 5.5" backspacing on my factory 71 rear axle housing and it clears just fine. It's about as much as I can comfortably do before I get nervous about rubbing either inside or outside. My pan-hard bar had to be adjusted to make sure it was all centered too, but I have about 1/2" clearance all around.
