The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop Moving a rear axle on the spring

there are a number places that offer a relocating and lowering block combination. fatfendered.com has an online catalogue also rbsauto.com. hope this helps. i am in the process of installing a complete spring and lowering kit from fatfendered. i would be interested to know the exact width of the rear axel you will be using. measure from wheel mounting surface to surface. its fifficult sneakink on the lots when the salesmen aren't looking and climbing under to measure. iam currently useing a 79 nova rear but had to use spacers with the tires i have it is about 3 inches over all to narrow with 235/70/15 tires. and has a 2:73 rear to low numericaly. 3:11 would be better. somewhat better since i just put on fenton headers w/dual exhaust& offenhouser intake w/ two single rochesters. ron
