[55 Chevy Dave]

It is finally time to start welding in some new parts! First, the 4-link coil over rear suspension...

It's going to be time for a new rear axle soon. I am thinking about doing a narrowed 12-bolt Chevy. I plan to install some wide tires in the back. I don't mind tubs in the bed, but I don't plan on widening the fenders. I'm still researching how wide the axle should end up. I am also having a hard time finding a good axle shop in the Chicago suburbs. Any advice would be much appreciated.
