I did a search and couldn't really find alot on this setup. What is everyones opinion on the G bar setup? I plan on running 335 rear tires with a mini tub is this going to be a problem?

Why do you have to get custom bars? Is their interference?

How much is your rear end narrowed if you don't mind me asking?

The G Bar gives a little more tire clearance that leaf springs due to the fact that there`s no spring in the way behind the axle and the lower arms aren`t as wide as the stock spring in front of the axle. With 335s and 13" wheels you`ll probably have to move the rear of the links inboard like they do with the leaf springs. Relocate the axle side mounts and fab some new lower links from Johnny Joints and threaded swedged steel tubes and you should be all set. Mark SC&C
