Anyone here move the leaf springs to the other side of the frame and mini tub over to the frame rail? Got pics? How much tire can you fit in the wheel well now?

I used the Control Freak 4 link on my 73 Javelin.  It mounts right on the frame rail so you gain the width of the leafs inside the wheel well.  Right now the car is lowered quite a bit and I have 285/30 18's tucked in the well.  I've got about 3 1/2 extra inches before the frame rail.  As soon as I burn off these tires I want to widen my wheels and get some 335's on it.  I'll try and get some pics later tonight or tomorrow.
