Is there any concern with reduced turning radius?
I'm doing something similar, in switching a 9.5 14-bolt for a 2001 10.5 14-bolt. The wheel mounting width will be two inches wider.
I was told that GM intentionally narrowed up the rear wheels to improve low-speed maneuverability. Will I be compromising that by using a wider rear axle?
