going full width

[1SOLOW X]

we are building all the brackets/links ourselves. all of the brakes are good on both of the axles. all i have to buy will be drive shafts and wheels and tires, which i already have a line on for dirt cheap

Probably the best reason to narrow is you'll have a straight axle when you're done(assuming you use an alignment bar). Old truck axles are just that, old truck axles. I've never seen one that wasn't bent.
Also, if you think you can narrow by running deep back spacing, good luck. If you run any more than four inches of back space the hubs stick out and you get hung up on them.

I remember Opie would break an axle every run because of his bent full width front axle.

That sucked. getting that thing straightened was probably the best $150 i spent on that axle...
