Move rear axle back?

How hard would it be to move the rear suspension on an 84 wagon back an inch or two for better clearance for tires?Even with a lift for the rear the limiting factor on tire size is the close proximity to the rear door.So I'm wondering how hard would it be to move the whole assembly back a bit.

 

That or just push tires back a bit.

 

thanks in advance

Climb under your car and look..................... if you move the diff and whole show back, you'll have to have a new Driveline made, I have no Idea how you would make the trailing arm longer, Just look and see what you come up with.

Then lift the rear enough so it doesn't rub. Then when you lift the rear only, the car will be raked forwards, so then you will have to lift the front. then you will have a 4" lift, and a better looking and performing Subaru.
