Thanks to everyone for your replies. What I have are 8 in. rally wheels with 2.5 in. spindles and 2 in springs, and it looks like there will be an issue. No engine or body on frame yet. Wanted to keep stock lower control arms so can use the stock sway bar. I may go to a 7 in wheel in front and change to a 245 tire instead of the 255 I have now. If doesn't work will bite the bullet and go with 17 in wheels, and hope that does not cause another issue. Also want to keep 60 series tires.

Thank again.
