When I saw the top of this pic, I fully expected to see a pile of **** in it, and thought "wow, that's messed up to call Jimmy a pile of ****." Then I saw Clifford.

Another thing to look for in full widths is some of the 60's don't have room on the short side for a coil mount. You would have to run coil-overs or leaf springs. A good thing about 60's is its really easy to do high steer and you can run your tie rod behind the axle. Something to look for with full width 44's is some of the ford radius arm axles have cast on wedges for mounts. If you cut the wedges off the axle will fall apart.
