I cut the bearing ends off the rear housing a couple inches in of the bearing step. Went and did some calculations and figured with my 5" wheel house stretch, I would have to narrow the 71-74 rear housing about 15". 7.5626" each side to be exact. I decided I didn't need that much or I wouldn't be able to reach my lugnuts. lol So I decided 6" per side would be adequate. View attachment WP_20150111_001.jpg
