Canuck54 5window New Guy C Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 4 B.C. Canada	I have a 54 chevy 5 window pu that I am restoring. I am updating the suspension and I have noticed the the rear wheels do not sit centered in the rear wheel wells. I read an article that suggested moving the rear springs back approx 2". Has anyone done this and does this solve the problem?
