Rearend Took A Dump Now I Need Wheels
The rearend in my 67 started to howl so, I called Currie and ordered a new custom built Ford 9" today. It comes with a custom housing that will bolt up to the trailing arms, 3:70 gears, Tru-Trac Posi, 35 Spline Axles and a Wilwood rear disc kit. I am running 15" wheels ( Cragar aluminum slots ) right now that I have to get rid of. I don't think the rotors and calipers will fit in the old 15" wheels. Sooooo, I am looking for some new 18" wheels. I would like to get a set of Boyds but have not had much luck finding any with a 5 on 5 lug pattern. Anyone know of a good site that sells Boyds Wheels? I should have the rearend in three weeks. I would like to have the wheels before that so I'm ready to go when it gets here.

$$$$$$$$$ nice! I'd love to be able to do that for a rear for my Z28. I've looked at their stuff and it's very nice.

How much cash was that new rear? I think most of the wildwood brakes are fine with a 15' wheel! most all drag cars run 15's! Kevin

The new rear was just under 3 grand and I still have to pay freight. I think I'll wait on the wheels and see if my old ones will work. I really don't feel like parting with more cash right now. I'll post a few pics when I get it if anyones interested.
