rearend

cross members · 06-30-2008, 03:24 PM

Whats up everybody. I just bought a 1998 s-10 that has a 5.7 ltr V8. The guy that put the motor in it also put a full size chevy rearend in it. I want to pack it but i dont think it is possible to bag it with this rearend considering how the rims stick out. Does anyone have any ideas?

what kind of rear end? year specs etc 10 bolt? 12 bolt? Are you aksing if you can bag this truck with the rear end you have?

It is a ten bolt rear end. The rims dont stick out that far, but i know if bagged it right now, the rims would not tuck.

if they dont stick out that far, you could change the backspacing/offset of the rims.... or get an 8.5 inch out of a 4.3 5spd. s-truck..... then u will tuck
think of it this way..... ur gonna spend money one way or the other

Do you actually think the wheel offset is differant with stick shift, then it is with an automatic? It's not
