It dropped the rear end about 2" and helped the stability of the car out tremendously.

Dave, I don't remember doing anything there, but I'll double check. My rear is narrowed 2.5" per side and I have 6" backspaced magnum drags. This combo makes the wheels tuck 1" per side. I have offset LCA's and I had to trim the LCA relocation brackets at the bottom to clear the wheels.
Thanks Dave.
Thanks Dave.

Thanks Dave.
yea i have the offsets too that move the lca's inboard like 3/4" on each side vs. the factory location. i know with the minitub it'll fit the well right, but the phb mount seems like it will be a challenge and i don't think my wheels will be in quite as much as yours are. i'm running a 15x11 with 6.5" bs and a 325/50/15 for now and then up to 30's when the turbos find their way on the car over the winter. tia for taking a look at it.

You need a LOT of power to take advantage of the 315/60 like Brady has...ALOT, You can go low 9's on a 325/50 which is why me and my Dad are mini-tubbing the 94 we are doing....I have pics...will put them up later. But I can tell you, it is not a small task. It requires alot of tools.
