Niiiiiiice. I'm ordering up my Billingsley pretty soon. Fabbed 9"

I just need to figure out how much I want to shorten the axles. I'm sending my wheels back to iForged, and I'm going to go big with the dish. I've yet to measure anything yet though.

What axles did you go with in that 9"? I'm thinking since the car is setup for the street, I'm going to try the Tru-Trac.

Lookin' good Don,
Rob
