8.8 rear in my A-body. I cant be the first!

So based on the data I have dug up.

If I get two "short" axels and shorten the overall housing, it should go from 59.25" to 56.25".

Typical Bullit rims are a 5.72" back space. I may need that in the front but would love to run something wide in the rear. (like Jgale has posted).

Hmmm I think I may have to do a bit of wheel offset homework before going much further.

I see a problem. Look at your Mopar close and you'll see the engine and trans. are not on center. They're approx. 1-5/8" off set to the pass. side. Cutting down the 8.8 axle making the u-joint centered will make for one heck of a bad angle on the u-joints.
