If I figured right the 7" with the 4.5 will put you where you are at now with the 8 's as far as the outside edge, but you will now be half inch further away from the frame which is good. Good luck

I have a brand new set of the bushwacker extenda flares for a tj they are still in the box. I think the just fasten on with double sided tape from 3m, am asking 225.00 not sure what the shipping would be I live in central Pa.
Forgot also was your flywheel new? Chevy motors have been know to crack around the bolts causing a vibration under power and also when you come off the power.
Before you spend the 350 check your pinion angle make sure they are the same at both ends if not maybe you could pick some of the angled shims for the rear to change it before you spend the money.
Jeep at one time did put 304s in the cjs just got away from them when gas prices went through the roof besides the 6 makes it power down low where you need it for wheeling. There are rumors that it is coming to an end though (3.7 v6) we shall see.
