I have swapped out the original front suspension on my '68 and replaced it with the whole setup from a '78, Can anyone tell me how much wider the distance between the wheels is and or how much wider the suspension is from doing this swap? I also swapped in the diff from the '78 (changed the mounts) so I know it won't look funny. Have I gained any track width by doing this. The diff is 11/2" wider, so would the front be that much wider too?

Thanks
Tyler
