If the axle and tires are back further you wouldn't be able to steer, tires would hit the FW and fender.

on a 4 x 4 if the wheels are in the proper place one shouldn't have a problem. on mine when I orig got it , it did 36x15 x 15 on it and I never had a problem. as a matter of fact I even have 33x12 1/2x 15 on the frt of my one t and don't have a problem

Ron....

I agree with you...Mine are 36/12.00 X16's on factory GMC K1000 suspension and I've never touched a fender ....not even when I was getting rough with it.

BTW, ron....
You sure have an intelligent forehead....and kind of a pinkish nose.
Very nice.

Make sure you have everything required to make your frame swap legal with CA DMV. 95% of the time I discourage frame swaps.

Looking good Jesusgatos!

I found the pictures of Blackmore's flatbed online, and have bits and pieces of it floating around in my mind for the flatbed on my beast.

Looks like I never posted a pic in here of my 63. So here you go, as it is right now.



It goes in the 17th for paint, finally!
