Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Happy New Year Donnie… truck is gorgeous. should be close enough, with a little dialing in that you can enjoy the entire cruise and show season.

Thanks Chris. I have put a few on it. Not to many though. It always seems like there is something else that needs to be done.

Thanks. Yes I could have put 10 inch rims on the back. The extra 1/2 inch would have to be set in towards the frame.

I read where you put the wider rear axle from 71-72 under.
Iim guessing if you used conversion axles it would have the right spacing for 10" rims.
