Narrowing a Rear end.

Well I guess I will let you see what I have been up to the last week. As some of you may know I have just gotten started on working on my 70 Duster after a long and I do mean long layoff. I have been narrowing the rear end, it's a 9" not an 8 3/4 but the procedure is the same.
Here is a shot after cutting down and tacking the 4 link brackets in place.


Getting ready to finish weld the 4 link brackets.

Note the jig in place.

Here the outside all welded up.



A little taste.

As you can see there is still shiat to get rid of.

Now to tack the link strapping in place.




An other peek.

Left side 4 link bracket all finished.




Now to tack the left side back brace.



Now to finish weld back brace and add left side lower coil over mount.


Setting up for the right side tomorrow.

And there you have it, Narrowed 9".

Guess you noticed I did keep one thing Mopar, That's because of the rear Discs I have.

Hope you enjoyed.
