Today I started to mess with the rear tires.... I'm using my stock rearend just to get me in the ballpark for BS and see what I have to work with. The plan is to get the rims and tires and then measure and order a custom Dana 60. Right now I just want to see where I stand......
This is the passenger side lip clearence right now... the tire is alittle crooked in the pix..... I havent done any trimming or rolling of the fender lip yet, but that is the plan for sure. I should be able to move the rim out just a tad more and still have fender clearence and enough space up top to sink the tire up into the wheelwell when its aired out..... I have about 3/4 inch of clearence on the inside right now...so probably move it out about 1/4 inch and I should be perfect.
