Build thread- 73 duster, forged 5.7 w/ PS and AC, 5 spd, big brakes and floater rear

My rear is not factory width. It's 60". A B body rear that is 60.125" would be good (1968-1970?). I also have 1/2" dr diff offset spring hangers. They are probably closer to 3/8" offset.

As it sits, I've only got .125" clearance from the tires to the leaf spring clamp. I ordered some steel 1/4" spacers, and I'll probably look into permanently fixing them to the rear hubs, if I have to have them. I'd love to find a leaf spring with the clamp in a different spot, as I'd have probably 3/8" clearance at that point.

Also, these wheels restrict the turning radius in the front. The tire hits the frame.
