I'm not familiar with 64 Fury's so can't help in that regard. Without knowing the backspacing it's hard to help but 13" sounds really, really tight. My Charger has 14" wide tubs, I stuffed 305's under it but the offset had to be spot on in order to pull it off without any rubbing. Break out your straight edge and a tape measure and go figure it out, easy task.

Yes, no problem with correct backspace on the wheel.

But its SO much easier to just type a question and let someone else do all the hard part for you. You know, actually "thinkin" and all that.

assclown, when the car is back in my garage, I'll measure.

A 10.5x29.5 slick will fit with a 10” rim on a 64. So I would think you should be able to get it in there. The spring itself is the limiting factor. We have removed the stock front hanger and the inner 2 mounting studs. Then positioned it against the frame. Drill 2 new holes for the remaining studs so it mounts flush to the rail. Use a transfer punch and make the spring eye hole location on the rail. Drill holes through both sides of the rail big enough for socket access. Weld the inner side of the bracket to the rail. Now the hanger is installed flush with the outside of the rail. Get a rear slider kit from Speedway Automotive. Cut a piece of plate to mount the slider. We bolted ours to the plate. Align the plate on the rear rail and weld it up. Now you can bolt your slider up. Move the spring perches in on the housing. This will gain you a fair amount. Easy and cheap if you can weld.

Good info, thanks Doug!
