This might be a dumb question.. but some guys told me that I need to narrow the rearend before i bag my truck so that the back wheels will tuck...Is this true? If so what should i do?

If anyone could help me out that would be awesome!!! thanks

no its not true, depends on the wheels your using, if the wheels stick out of the wheel well and u really really like them wheels and dont to get rid of them, then yes u will shorten the rear end, or u can flare the fenders, or u can change the wheels which would be the easy way to go
