B body rear in an A body
I Just put a b-body 8-3/4 form a 69 coronet R/T in my 73 duster. I am running wheel vintiques 15 x 8" steel wheels and 275/60r15 drag radials. the tire sits almost flush to the outside lip of the fender. I have not had any issues, and you could roll the lip if your springs are a bit worn just to be safe.....but it has been working for me. And you ge tthe added bonus of the 11" drums also (and a complete diff was $150....compared to ~$1000 for an a-body with small axles)
