So i want to mini tub my 74 nova and it looks like i could only get a bout an inch or two of tire on either side before I would run out of comfort room with the leaf springs

so what are my options i really dont want to tear out the rear subframe and narrow it

Could i make new hangers on the inside of the frame?:confused:
maybe some one can point me to a thread that they did this?

I haven't heard of having to move the leaf springs inboard being a very common thing. I know Detroit speed sells their minitubs in a kit aswell with shackle adjusters that swing the springs inboard a bit. I think it mainly depends on how far you want to tub.
