    Default 62" Rearend

    I have a Rearend out of a sportsman/pro stock type car. The car ran nova lowers and I'm guessing that's why the rear is wide. It is set up with the metric mounts from medieval chassis already. Can I make this work in a stock car with stock metric lowers by simply playing with offsets? Or do I need to buy a shorter housing

    It will work, I have done it, and ran ok with it. BUT, I found you can only tuck the tires in so far before the calipers get in the way, and I had to run some really deep front wheels, which worked ok, but the tires hit the frame when getting close to full lock. I would get a narrower housing.

    Is it centered? I wouldn't use it if so, you don't want the rr out like that.
