I hear you can narrow the nine and use a shot side axle on the other side. I would like to try it. The 32-48 rears are different I don't have the sizes handy but I have a 39 in my roadster. Cheapest would be an 8" and then run adapters or get a set of shoebox or IH 16" wheels with the 5 x 4.5 bolt pattern.

problem with switching wheels is i have that matching set of 4 originals with pinstripes and i'm kinda sticking with'em. There will be no new paint on this car that i can forsee. Call me a scrapper. I'll just have to keep an open mind and ears on this rearend thing.
