Re: SANFORD build thread

I agree, very nice work

So it looks like you retained the stock housing ends when you narrowed the differential housing? Did you have shorter C-clip axles made?

Re: SANFORD build thread

hemifalcon, The wheels were on an old frame when I got it,I think they are a standard chevy 5 lug wheel. They measure 15x8 with a 3.750 backspace. The caps I got at a swap meet, I think they are for a first Gen camaro or Nova of that year. I have a set of American Racing TTO's ordered but they have not gotten here yet.
