I had a builder set me up with an '87 Vette rear end on my 1952 Chevy P/U. He centered the axles in the wheel wells. As soon as I saw it, It looked, "wrong". Everyone who saw it said,"why are the wheels too far forward?" I had him center the axle into the point with the highest rise in the frame. This looks way better, in my opinion.
