So I am in the process of baggin my 72' GMC BURB right now, and the drop is so drastic that the rear wheels have moved forward in the wheel opening, and the axle as well in the step notch ( it is hitting at the perch in the front), so to keep it centered and from looking ghetto, I am just going to stretch the trailing arms about 1-1 1/2"s and plate them. Do you guys see any potential problems with this, or have any of you already done this to realign your wheels?

Thanks

Robert
