Wheels NOT Centered- Solutions?
Has anyone come up with a solution for the wheels being off-center when you lower these trucks. Would like to hear any and all solutions. Thanks Jim

Early Classic Enterprises sells the Super Track Bar for over 4" drop and an adjustable one for up to 4". I believe the Super adjusts at both ends.

Re: Wheels NOT Centered- Solutions?
pretty sure he's talking front to back and not side to side ... anywhoo, the different modified crossmembers offered by both PorterBuilt & ***************** both move the front wheels forward in the fender to overcome the un-centered look.

Re: Wheels NOT Centered- Solutions?
Yes- I'm talking about moving the front wheels forward and the rear wheels back.

Re: Wheels NOT Centered- Solutions?
The easy solution...
Here's another option if you're wanting a project. It was created by slammed67, a member on the site, and was before his the craze with many of his upgrades building one-off modiciations for his project. http://www.jayspot.com/pages/67gmc-chassis.html

Re: Wheels NOT Centered- Solutions?
I believe the Porterbuilt rear trailing arm crossmember allows you to move the rear back also.
