In other words are you going to have to shorten the rearend and bring in the front wheels to fit inside the fender? I hope that makes sense.

if you mean the stance of one out side wheel to another being too wide it really isnt that far off.the suspension on newer style truck is alot wider then the older style but on the newer style they use a wheel that sits in more compared to the older style wheel that has a deeper lip and sits out further.if you go back a few pages to where the 01 sierra donor truck is all together you can see i had the wheels off of the 67 on it and they kicked out a couple inches wider compared to stock wheels on a sierra.so on the 67 one center wheel to the other center is about 63.5 inches.on the newer style frame they are about 65 inches from one to the other.then with the front camber when dropped to the ground its around 63.if your confused or i didnt answer your question please let me know.
