Tubbed Out 72 Charger

Has anyone Tubbed out a 71 and up B Body? I would like to be able to put wider tires on but still would like a back seat, any ideas are sure to b appreciated!

Thanks

Unless you relocate the leaf springs your not going to gain anything by tubing it..

so if I relocate the leaf springs to the original chasis structure and reinforce it should work right?

How wide of tire are you wanting to go? The 71-74 B bodies already have a lot of room back there, especially if you relocate the leaf springs.

nothing to crazy but wide enough so I can get better traction and not have the tread sticking outside of the body,

what are you running for a rear tire now ?

i would like to ride a set of 15x10' rims I got given to me from a friend??

consider mini-tubbing,and install a inboard spring mount in the frame,and that will be plenty of room.someone else here that has a done car should chime in to give exact measurements,but I would guess 12-14" width would be easy...just remember,big tires are very expensive,so add up costs before you cut,lol....mike...oh,i have 15x8+295-65-15's on mu 72 charger w/ no mods.

You can get a 11" maybe a 12" tire under that car w/o anykind of tubbing or spring relocation. How much power are you throwing down? It might be money better spent looking at upgrading your rear springs, and shock combo.
