L-EATER, what is your power combo? What kind of truck do you have? X-Cab, Shor bed, etc?

Blown-I have a RC SB 2wd with a 6 liter and a Whipple. Never ever had any traction problems until recently when the G80 started to lay down.

with a 4" backspace you shouldn't have any problem contacting the break line bolt. You should't have to grind much either, Keep us posted on the results.

Well, they are mounted and I had to grind quite a bit. The calipers are aluminum, if anybody cares, so they weren't too hard to do. I have about 2 inches of wheel/tire hanging out past the body-kinda looks "mean" in a redneck sorta way! The good news is I can absolutely dead hook with NO wheelspin on the street so I know the track is going to be fun. The bad news is now my fuel problem (or whatever is wrong) is getting worse and the performance is way down) When I get the problems lined out I am going out Lightning hunting, HeHe.
