I'm needing wider wheels on my 68' Barracuda and need to move the leaf springs out of the way or deleted with another option. Any ideas on my options to use at least a 10" wheel?

MP had the box sheetmetal kit that you welded into a cutout in the front subframes. it might be NS1 tho I saw one for sale recently (here iirc) or find a good fabricator/welder locally.

Dr Diff makes a 1/2" spring relocation kit. That puts the outside edge of the spring inline with the inner wheel well lip. If you need to go wider then that, you'll have to move the springs in to the frame rails and mini tub the car.
