how you going to make it work if it isn't for a f body? since you're going to race it do you really want the stock width? 56" backing plate to backing plate is close to if not the factory measurement.

wow these rears are wider than i assumed, just for the hay of it ill add this info: truck rear axles through 69 were 55.5" from back plate to back plate, and 70-72 ones were 57" and 73- through 80's and probably early 90's also were 56.25" or so, some had 11 5/32" x 2.75" brakes and so are 1.5" wider, this goes for 8.875" and 8.5" axles both, 8.5" are dana 44 and GM corp 10 bolt rears.
