Mine has redrilled rotors and about 8" of drop in the front and so far no rubbing. But it's never been driven either, but I don't see any issues as these wheels have a good deal of backspacing. I currently have the same size tires as slammed427.

Cool thanks. Your truck looks good with those wheels. My truck did sit pretty low with the sbc 350 but after the all aluminum ls swap it sits a bit higher. Ill prolly try to find someone to redrill the rotors so I know I'll have the room. Are you able to run a wider tire in back??

With the dodge wheels, i'd say you could run a 275/40 on the rear pretty easily and they'll be the same diameter as the original 235/75/15s were.

Haven't done much to her lately, but I did throw together a 20X12" mock up wheel for the project. It's got 4 different bolt patterns, 6-1/4" of backspacing (which is not quite enough to work with my current setup). I cheated when I did the backside of the wheel, set it next to a 15" rally for size comparison.

Glad to see your build is still going. It is one of my favorites.

Thanks tiny, I haven't done much work on it except changing my mind on a few things and trying to redevelop my plans. I have sold the dodge wheels, except for the one pictured above. And have recently decided to do a truck arm rear suspension like the previous generation had.

Re: "Sin-thia" My 74 GMC
 

I have done a couple small things since my last post, I'll try to get a couple pics up soon. I haven't done anything big though. I started working a second job last December so my spare time is low, plus I have a few things to fix on my daily before I can really get going again.

Re: "Sin-thia" My 74 GMC
 

Wow, it's been almost 4 years since I've updated this. I still have it, hasn't been parted out yet. I'm still working 2 jobs and have moved since I posted about it last. I unfortunately no longer have a garage so I sadly have no progress at this time. But I have been thinking about it a lot again here lately so maybe I'll get back on it sometime in the near future.

As a fellow 74 owner, I hope you get her back on the road soon.
