I'm sure this subject may have came up before but, what passenger car 9 inch is the right width for a 56 wagon? I just read that maybe one out of a 70-71 torino might be the one to get. I want to verify that before I get one. I assume the spring perches will have to be changed and maybe the shock mount?
