Rubbing rallys on Rear.

I have my 68 suburban bagged with the CPP super track bar kit. Moser 5 bolt axels in the stock 6 bolt housing. it is a narrow 68 axel. I have 15 x 8 truck rallys with 275 60 15's . At ride height the axel is centered. The tires take turns rubbing the inside of the tub on turns some times the drivers rubs other the passengers. I am wondering if this is just a Suburban related problem. Is it safe to run wheel spacers on the back ?

Thanks,

Mario

Re: Rubbing rallys on Rear.

Mine would rub in the rear as well. I have now gone extreme drop and cut the rear out. But mine would rub there as well.

Try running some thin spacers (no more than .250").

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.

Anti-sway will help too. Front and rear.
