Aren't the holes in rails on 2in spacing? My inners are 3.25 away from cab with one slip left. Probably not worth the effort and yes mud clearance would be less.(not supposed to play in mud) This unit is recent purchase  with no history from deceased P/O resold by a jockey. Has 20.8's with the big finals.. Not much drawbar work as hole is almost like new. Think it done a lot of plowing because rt sway block has 1/2 in wore off it and left is lightly worn. Does that sound probable? Lots of little things need attention but overall pretty sound I think/hope. Spring field work will tell the story. 4600hrs P/S with less blowby than I expected and rebuilt injection pump.

Dana I've never went to the trouble to learn how to put a picture on here. There was a time back when photobucket was new that I took phone pics,trasnsfered to desktop and somehow got them posted here. I think some things changed since then and my eyes glaze over when someone tries explaining how. Should be possible from Samsung but I'm 66.

4600 hrs, time for a set of crankshaft bearings. Don't let it go past 5000 hrs.                 MACK

2wd?? I'm not sure if they made an 8070 MFD with the wide planetary setup?

Yes Lynn 2wd.The FWA used the faster finals of the 8050. My other 8070 PD 2wd is after ser #2662 which has faster finals.
Mack that was what I was thinking too.

I believe you're right about the spacing on the rails. Didn't the front axel have the same spacing and would be easier to measure.
