Got the 37 back to the shop, the 15x10 wheels with the 295/15/50s are on it. They stick out past the fender about 2 inches, so I'm thnikng of going about 2.5 inches per side so need a rear end that's 5 inches narrower.

when you narrow the rear, are you planning to move the springs inboard or under the chassis ? Generally a 4 link has the springs inboard of the rails. He did say he was going to a 4 link in the initial post I believe
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

Those tires look good on the truck. Thanks for posting the last picture, I had wondered what you did for a gas tank. The picture also reminds me that I need to get around and start on my rear roll pan. It's an Isuzu Sidekick tank, only bad thing is it's only 11 gallons, I bought it brand new off eBay for around $100, you can have it when I yank it out if you want it. I got a 17 gallon fuel cell coming that fits in the same spot

What is the first gear ratio for the transmission? Most 6.4 cars have a 3:09 rear gear.
