Re: 63 C 10 it begins
WMS to WMS (wheel mounting surface) is the correct way to measure the width of a differential. That's the same as drum face to drum face
 So I said 63.5, you say 63.625.....that's only .125 difference between us.....close enough. The 58.5 sounds more like the housing width/length. Quote:

Re: 63 C 10 it begins
Captainfab I am sure the extra 1/8" is probably the rust build up, the 58.5 was axle tube flange to axle tube flange. The numbers did check out on it being a 72.
1bad62pro/street Not completely decided on the size although I have decided on the style. I plan on running the American racing Salt flat style thinking somewhere in the area of a 17x8 in the rear and a 16x7 in the front. Looks like I will need to increase the backspace at least a inch a side due to the wider front and rear. So much to do prior to getting to wheels have not sorted it all out yet. |

Re: 63 C 10 it begins
I think those wheels will look awesome on your truck. You don't see them on trucks often, especially this vintage.

Re: 63 C 10 it begins
They are reasonably priced and allow for custom offsets and studs besides I could not afford real Halibrands.
