Leaf or coil rear? Coil rears can do a 15x14" wheel w/o frame mods.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Project twin hair dryers (here we go again)

My truck is a coil spring rear. That would be cool to get that much tire under it. What do you guys think of a tastefully done spray in bed liner after some fab work on the wheel tubs? The truck has a steel floor in the box but not sure how a bed liner would look with the patina paint??? Give me some ideas

Don't worry, it'll fly off on the first test drive.
