hey Mike, there's something else to consider here. when you put wider axles on and spread those wheels apart, your going to give that back truck allot more life. The bushing wont be able to lock down as it will with shorter axles...it's going to drastically change the performance of that truck

Take it to an auto repair shop and have them shoot it with a good urethane...Sikkens, DuPont, etc. Most of these will have the clear coat mixed with the base coat, so it saves a step...
