do you have any pics of rear frame did you have to narrow the rear or is it stock rear

BRASSHEAD · 11-18-2011, 11:59 PM

Yes I did narrow the frame and the rear can't recall how much off hand its been a while since it was done. The wheels are 15x14 with a 4" back space.

think you can throw a tape line on it maybe tomorrow

I won't be around it till after Thanksgiving but I would be happy to then. What I done when I narrowed mine was buy the wheels and tires so I had the correct measurements then I narrowed the frame for the clearance I wanted around the tire. Once I had the wheels and tires fitting under the fenders like I wanted then I measured from the bolt surface of each wheel to determine the width of the rearend.
