As long as you box in the rear rails it shouldn't be a problem swapping them to the inside of the rails.

What about doing the truck arm conversion instead? Much more durable and can both handle well and go very well down the 1/4-mile too.

Lots of tire clearance too and there are kits out there to convert the square body trucks over to the truck arm suspension if you don't want to fab up your own kit from a donor truck.
