I can understand narrowing the front end for tyre clearence etc etc
but why would you want to narrow the rear ???
Talk with Michael at VVDS he had just done one for his car and he has set of components to build another one. 9789-1777
I've narrowed and raised the rear end of my 63 , and it's a pretty big job , especially when the body is still on.
Narrowing the front beam is quite easy.
you can narrow the rear beam to accomodate much larger rear tyres if you're not using the torsion bars. Just cut it and move spring plate attachment on the traling arm to suit and then you can stuff some 295...330 whatever under there. Anyone know a creative engineer?
