Rear Tire hitting front edge of wheel well

[Plumcrazyfreak]

With my 70 Duster sitting still the rear tires are aprox 5/8" from the front edge of wheel well. If I drive it and make a tight turn the tire rubs on the front edge of well. I have a 8 3/4, Moser Axles, Comp Eng Rear adjustable shocks, New HD Leaf springs with rubber front bushings. Nothing is loose. Help.

Thanks

That is a bunch of movement in my opinion. What tire size?

 

[Plumcrazyfreak]

325 50 15

This may not matter, but how wide is the wheel?

 

[Plumcrazyfreak]

15 x 10 with 5" back space.

Do you have extra long shackles in back or are they stock length?

 

[Plumcrazyfreak]

Offset shackles Approx 1" inward.

Got any swaybars ? Springs wont prevent body roll. You could add spacers in front of the forward spring hanger but you will need longer bolts too

The rear will move quite a bit on leaf spring cars. If you want to keep that tire you'll need to clearance the front of the wheel well.

Would some super Stock leafs with a metal front bushing work better ? The rear end will move forward that much ? This is happening at very slow speeds.
