Great project, thanks for all the photos

I am about ready to order the wheels for my 71, which has the same setup as yours [drop spindles and bags]. I will be running 18s in the front, 20s in the rear. Anyway, how come you are going with so much BS on the front? I am guessing that 20s require more BS that 18s. Based on what I have seen on other trucks pictured here, I have planned on running 18x8s with 4" of BS to have some lip on the front rims.
