    Mike, Matt, and who ever else. Keep going. It doesn't bother me a bit. It's hard enough to find early hemi info so share all you want.

    Randy, I may have to dig out my stock fenders and see what they look like on the car now. I'm thinking they won't fit now but hopefully I'm wrong.

    It might be worth checking out...depending on the backspacing of your wheels. My 9" rearend is 57.25" between wheel mounting surfaces. I tried the 17x9 steelies from my truck on the 37 at one point. I don't remember exact details of the fit but I got them on.
    You have the Explorer rear, right? I think that's a little wider so it might not work....

    Yes I do, and that is my concern. If I remember correctly, it's 60" wide and my wheels are 0 off set which is 5".
