The 56” rear end is what I’m using to run 12” wide wheels with a 3.5” backspacing. These wheels have a 7.” deep lip. Outside of tire to outside of tire measures 75”.
Bearings and seals are already pressed onto the 31 spline axles. Axles are cut to fit, and you can easily cut them with a cut off wheel or bandsaw. Axles are triple drilled for 5x4.5, 5x4.75, snd 5x5 bolt pattern. The rear ends come with “cut to fit” axles.
Axle housings are New Style Large Ford Torino. I have the Wilwood brakes available that are 5x5 bolt pattern and bolt to this rear end.
If you are running coil overs the 56” rear end will give you around an inch of clearance between the brake caliper and coil over.
The trailing arm mounting pads we offer will NOT work with leaf spring suspension.
These are the lengths that I cut my axles for my 54” rear end. The measurement is from between the bearing and the press on sleeve, to the end of the axle.
