I was under the impression that the ATS spindle on a G-body would only allow 3.5" BS'ing (that's the info I got when I inquired about them). They said any more BS'ing & the steering arm would interfere w/the wheel lip on the inside.

Hhmmm . . .....

The wheels I have on it right now (corvette wheels) do hit the tie rod. I will have you an answer tonight about the new ones. It will be close, but I think we are ok.

Unless I am really missing something, I will have plenty of clearance with the 4 3/4 b.s. I put the TTlls back on that are 4" bs and there is plenty of room, plenty. There will be absolutely no issue with the steering arms and clearance.
The other 3/4 will not be a factor.
