Uh , that's quite a bit more than it cost me to get my 10" narrowed. I know a 9" has an offset pumpkin, but I don't think it's $400 - $600 worthy. If he's not sure, then he's never done them. I would find somebody who has.

I've got a guy charging 175 to narrow the housing.

thanks for the heads up guys, all the info is great, but you guys aren't in cali...:(anyone know of a guy in so cal that does good work for a good price.

PM Teddisnoke he can either do it or point you in the right direction. Either way he will be in good hands......:yes:

Depends on what you're getting for that price.

If that's just to narrow the housing, that's expensive.

If that includes spring pads, axles, new gears, rebuilding/replacing the center section, new brakes, etc...ready to bolt on the car...that's pretty good.
