4x4 rear diff width
my rear diff is 2 1/2" overall narrower than the front diff, the front looks good with the 33's, but the back looks like the tires are too tucked in, I was thinking of 1 1/4" wheel adaptors, anyone have this problem, any thoughts on this

When I originally bought my truck the rear rims had a different backspacing to make them stick out. The fronts were 4" the back was like 2.5" looked good but meant the tire did not get rotated. Supposedly GM vans came with wider rear axles than the trucks. You could swap one in.
