hey to all you bagged and/or body dropped guys.... how much room do you have between the edge of your rim/tire and the inside of the bed fender well when you are layed out?
Reason I ask is I am going to be swapping in a Ford 8.8" rear axle assembly into my project, and theres a bunch of different width options depending on the vehicle/year it comes out of.
Stock toyota axle is 58.5" from wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface (where the rim is flush against the drum).
I can get a rear axle out of an explorer with full disc brakes, posi, etc for a great price, however the wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface is a full 1" wider....which is only a 1/2" on each side....
My frame is going in for fab work next weekend and I need to have the proper rear by then!
Thanks guys...
