    Thanks guys! :)
    Have got a lot of inspiration from builds on this forum  :thumbsup:

    Rushforth Wheels


    6.5" lip



    Needed a minor mini tubbing to get enough clearance to the 345 tires,so widened the wheel wells 1 3/8" and then got around 1"+ clearance on each side of the tires.

    I finally got my new rear axle delivered!  :woo:
    It's a 9" Moser, 3,70 ratio, Wavetrac , 31 Splines, Aluminium 3rd member & HD housing.
    It was good to finally put the wheels on and see how they fit and that clearance isn't a problem  :thumbsup:
