On mine I moved the hangers out 3/4" on each side, and moved the perches in 3/4" on each side to make up the 3" difference in spring track. The tires get in the way if you do it all on the frame, and the pumpkin gets in the way if you move just the perches.
BKcruiser,
pictures? build thread? like I said I'm looking at this for the front. I didnt have any problems just moving the perches in an 1 1/2" on the rear.
No build thread, most of my stuff is built on the trail LOL!
For the front I would think just outboarding the hangers would be the simplest way. Inboarding the perches would climb into the third member alot. The only reason I split the difference was to gain a little clearance on the tires at full lock. I had to adjust the pass ubolt a little as it is.
uglyoinker.....looks like your boy is flipping us off!
I think it was one of the best things I could do to my tall and soft 55 much more solid, just outboarded- still turns very tight for a old 55...
