Anyone have information on clocking axle housing on a WD ? Suppose to lengthen wheel base about 7".

if you mean rotating the final drive rearward, then yes it can be done. just pull the bolts and turn, but alot of pulls wont allow altered wheel bases

This has been discussed before. I highly doubt any Antique Club/Organization would ever allow this to compete in any regular class. It has been done for nearly 40 years in the NTPA with 180 Allis's in the 5000-5200 and later on 5500 lb diesel super-stock class. You go ahead and change a "WD or WD45 or D-17 and see how many places won't let you compete. Be sure to save your old drawbar and wheelie bars, because you'll soon be bolting them back on.
