Finally will have some replacement shoes for the back. I think i got an good deal...Hopefully will get here in time for the new competition.

Now the question is i am assuming i need 3" studs on the back...Am I correct????

No stud mod but you will need to relocate your sway bar with a sway bar relocation kit. I have the same wheels and I had to grind the brake calipers down a little bit, but it was pretty easy. When you put them on for the first time make sure you spin them to insure that they aren't hitting any where. You did get a great deal.

congrats,

AFAIK for proper tech you do need 3" studs, everyone I know that has Bogarts has the longer studs.
