Wheel base = Distance between wheels front to back
Wheel Track = Distance between wheels left to right

Flipped rim's, wheel spacers, 60's diff's will all widen it.

Wheelbase is a spring flip job, widening is 60 or 80 diffs.. :crazyeyes:

alot more then you think involved and yes it "can" work.

widen and lengthen it!
go 80 diffs. use some coils while you are there.
