can anyone tell me if 73-87 rallies will fit on a 72 2wd blazer without rubbing.

Yes.

unless you got dropped spindles.

bigbluthng · 09-17-2005, 01:01 AM

no dropped spindles for now, just bags all around. i will eventually get 20's but i want to roll with the rallies while i work out the bugs and do the bodywork.

How come you cant run rally on drop spindles? I just picked some drop spindles up and need to get some rims, I was going to pick up some cheap ralleys but if they are not going to fit I may need to re-think my options.

Keith, the 15" wheel will hit the A-arm if you use drop spindles. I think you can grind the arms some and get away with it, but I'm not sure.

I have the 73-87 rallies and 2.5" drop spindles. It was this way when I bought it, so maybe the A-arm has been ground down.
