PB Dropmember Track Width??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm interested in getting DM, but am concerned about track width being to narrow? I'm planning on new wheels soon and the big brake spindalls upgrade from CPP wich narrows the track width 1 1/8. Are these DM built to order, can Nathan make DM to standard width???

Nate is usually pretty good about doing custom work- or has been for me. The limiting factor will be the width of the steering rack. You could always get a set of wheels with 1" less BS and a fatter lip...

If you are looking for a big brake kit to use with the DM, I offer the 13" McGaughy's kit. It includes the rotors, dual piston calipers, hardware, and spindles. I don't have the price in front of me (all my info. is at the shop). I will post it up on Tuesday. It is very reasonably priced, and does not narrow the trac-width like the CPP kit. If you're stuck on using the CPP kit for whatever reason, I can build you a DM with a wider trac width.
