Don't you need new rear wheel bearings to do that, then have issues with the parking brake shoes no longer fitting as well? Dunno. Seems expensive and a major PITA to me. I'm at the point where I'd rather do body work than fit parts which may limit my ability to perform regular maintenance on my car down the road.
Wonder how many millimeters of clearance is gained by cutting out the lip on the rear quarter. I remember Berk being able to run a 285 out back by doing that. Maybe 7-8mm?
