[QUOTE="halcat, post: 295375, member: 2295"] I have a narrowed front Rockwell. Good: the chunk is in the center and fits between the frame and you can keep your rig low. One axle shaft fits either side for a spare. That's about all the good, now the bad Bad: can't run a 10" double ended ram, tie rods are to short and screws up the geometry of steering lock to lock . HAve to run a two piece front drive shaft to clear auto trans pan I have rear steer and the rear axle s standard. With hubs flipped in it's the same as the front with hubs flipped out. If you want to build a super narrow rig and are going to run a narrowed front with hubs flipped IN your ok, but if your wanting to build something the same as tons, I would rum standard width with hubs flipped in. you will just have to run less back spacing on your wheels. I wish I had a standard axle. [/QUOTE]
