Re: A body 8 3/4



Gary,,,,,,, I have never used an A-body in a B-body, but know it is done often,,,,,, the spring perches are nothing, anyone that can weld can move them, if you do not have the bigger bolt pattern axles you have several options, some have already been stated, another is having the A-body axles redrilled and studded, or my favorite just getting aftermarket hardened axles, all the choices involve needing to replace  the brakes (complete), good thing is all the 8 3/4 brake parts seem to be interchangeable when  done as a complete set. Changing the axle will allow a slightly wider tire to be installed between the axle housing and the fender well lip  with out having to use a jack between the axle and  the body, it will also enable you to find a larger assortment of wheel to use because of the less backspace required
