ti would depend on wether you are using the offset mounts which work well & are easy to install or cuttin gthe front mount into the frame rail which is a lot harder to do . both kits are available from Mopar.

just in case



the recipe that should fit everyones E-bodies

1962 to 1970 B-body (2 or 4 door) 8 3/4 rearend
That is a rearend that has a springseat of 44 inches
center to center and an overall length of 59.2 inches
from brake drum to brake drum

Dana 60's work well too

buy the 2 inch longer offset  spring hanger from Mopar

A-body Super Stock springs or equivalent

10 inch wide wheels with an offset of 5 1/2 inside and
4 1/2 outside

295 / 50s size tires on 15 inch wheels
275 / 60s look interesting too but the drivers side fender lip might need a quarter inch or so trim as
the outside of the tire is closer on that side .

I agree with 360cuda about the fit for 275 60 tires. I have a set on my cuda and had to trim the quarters bach a bit.
