move gas tank?

yes wheels are just slipped over original tires for mock up. hmm not sure what i am going to do for permanent solution. think I will be calling on local machine shop for hubs. Unless anybody here has other solutions. wheels are 5 x 100 bolt pattern. gonna need about 5 to 6 inch spacers on each wheel.

You might want to consider making the front A-arms and tierods 5-6 inches longer instead of the wheel spacers.
That much spacer with that wheel/tire combo will put way too much lateral load on the kingpins, bushings, wheel bearings and hubs.
It would also reduce the forward/backward movement of the tire when turning because the turning pivot (kingpin) is closer to the center of the width of the tire.

I like that idea crash.. thanks for bringing that to my attention. Now I hope there is enough room on original hubs to redrill to 5 lug pattern.

Probably not enough room because most are square hubs but you can get 1" wheel "adaptors" to go from your wheel pattern to the 4 on 4 hub, lot less stress.

Keep the pics coming!!!
