Now as you can tell, after installing the front drop spindles and disc brake upgrade, the frontend widened by 1.5" over (3/4" on each side). As a result I will be mounting a borrowed set of 15x7 6-lug rally wheels to help pull the front tires back under the inner fenders until I can figure out which way I want to go with the truck. (Thank you hot trux!)

The 3rd and 4th pics below will show the difference between the front and rear wheels.

Here's a few more shots:
