    In 1937 to 54 Chevys the RE is forward factory not centered. It has to do with their suspension movement I'm told. You need to redrill the centering holes 1" forward in the replacement pads on the late model RE to center it. The front clip is loose giving the impression of the front being moved rearward. It is not done yet in the shop photo. In the photoshop the front axle was moved forward aka A/FX,but the rear is an eye fooler caused by the tire smoke.
