Re: Cheap trick patina 70
Thank you working to get her done. I ran into a road block last night. I figured I would have to have the rear end narrowed and I do so I will be taking it out and cutting it down. Sucks to be me lol. But other then that it's goig smooth. Motor and trans are in. Going to put air ride tanks and compressors on tonight.

Re: Cheap trick patina 70
How much do you have to narrow the rear end?

Re: Cheap trick patina 70
Is the rearend the 71-72 width? I guess even the 67-70 width would be to wide too though. What's the width/BS on the wheels?

Re: Cheap trick patina 70
I changed it to the older one already. I knew with the lip of the rim it would never fit but I had to try. I appreciate the info.

Re: Cheap trick patina 70
The upper and lower bars that go from the frame rail to the center pivot are not installed yet they are what center the rearend as the rear moves up and down the center pivot makes up for the difference in length as the bars travel threw there arc. here is a pic to give you an idea.

Re: Cheap trick patina 70
That makes sense on the watts link..last time I saw one was on a Camaro, and it was preloaded at 45-degrees..wouldn't that cause a little stepping out?

Re: Cheap trick patina 70
Great looking, beefy setup. What's the plan for exhaust?
