Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
can you take a pic of yours with stock hinges when it is layed out and let me see where the tire is compared to the hood hinge , the problem with mine is the tire comes up totally through about 1/2 of the mounting point of the hinge. Of course all of this depends on tire size and how low you are, the nice thing about these is they are fiberglass / very easy to customize if you wanted to add a pocket for your hinge to set in . This first pic i am posting shows the truck before the Porterbuilt Dropmember, just bags and control arms, the second pic shows where the tubs come / compared to where the factory hood hinge bolted up, i will try to get pics tonight of the tire compared to the mounting area without the inner fender in

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
Dam! I see what you mean now, even on bags and a pocket made to accommodate the hinge you may have scrub issues, and absolutely no way with a DM.
I'm not even at the air stage yet but I really want these instead of the exposed wheel thing under the hood, just didn't want to have to go to the trouble & extra expense of changing the hood hinges. I'm still happy you've come up with these, they're great.

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
Are these from a 'new' source or from the original group you've been working with?

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
these are from the original source,they rebuilt the molds to correct the finish issues they were having, it will be a couple weeks before the New guy has a chance to look at them and see what he thinks

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
Any idea on the least amount of backspacing on a 8.5" rim?
Just trying to keep from having rubbing issue, on the outside edge. (maybe set up a criteria for purchase of these tubz) I'm interested in a set picked up, (not shipped). Price?

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
i honestly dont have a clue..i know that sounds bad, but backspacing has always confused the heck out of me, i can take a pic laying on the ground and looking up to the inside of the outside edge of the fender, is that the area you are concerned with ?? the reason i made these with the hood chanel in is , one they work with my wheels and two i didnt want to cut that lip on the fender ! but if you want to run a differnet offset you can always cut out the fender and hood lip and move this hump in the pic over to the outside a little more

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
Mike , this is the way I keep wheel width and backspacing seperate---the width of a wheel is measured inside the beads--in other words a 10" wide wheel is 10" between the beads but will measure almost 11" if U hook a tape on outside of beads!! Backspace is measured from BACK of hub surface to OUTSIDE of rear lip-I usually lay a straight edge across back of wheel and measure to back of hub for accurate figure for Backspace!!
I have to think ever time I order wheels lol......sent U a pm on tubes......jim |

Re: SLOSH TUBZ..bolt in inner fenders for 67-72 chevys
Like that prop valve bracket, cpp are another good company always re-inventing things that make life easier when modifiing our trucks.
Have you had a look at the clearence from underneath when the wheels are at full lock?
