Good question.....This would probably fly farther in the FD section. I'm sure someone would know there.

Good luck.

I would say you will need a spacer if early diff is still being used. +40 is ok at the rear but I reckon +50 might touch on the bolts for trailing arms

I was going to run FD wheels, but, IIRC, they would need a 2" spacer in the front and a 1" in the rear and I dont want to do that. I have some Work Equips now and a set of FC BBS wheels I need to mount. I just need to get the 1" spacers for the front to run the BBS wheels.
