I bought a chevy dana 60 and 14 bolt, supposedly from a cucv, for $300. I've read enough here to know I need to do rear disc swap, and the tear down has begun. But some more questions for the gods our forum:
1. For rear, what is the required rim backspacing to get end to end length somewhat close to stock? I seem to recall our rims have 5" backspacing, so I'd need like 2" or 3" to even out the short 14 bolt? My 14 bolt is about 70.5" overall.
2. Does the front need to be spring over? It seems most here have done it that way, but is that the path of least resistance? If front is spring over, do I need blocks under rear springs to level it out? Anyone got pictures of their front setup as the rear seems the most straightforward.
3. I'm running the corvette master for braking, but do I need to change it out if I'm going to run the discs in rear, or will I need to plumb an adjustable proportioning valve in the rear line?
Thanks!
