Another 60 stays in the fight

crazy but I think your axle is not centred at the back. The RH side rear wheel looks closer to the front than the LH side rear wheel. This happened to me when I installed my bds kit. It's easy to not have the centering pins lines up back there with the thick rubber buffer.

Take a measuring tape to the front of one wheel, then the other to the wheel well opening to confirm it.

Good progress by the way, congrates!

I think it is just the angle of the photo that makes it look that way. But I will measure to make sure everything is lined up and double check that the pins are seated correctly. Thank you for the heads up Brownbear!

I remember making sure the axel had fully dropped onto the spring before I installed the Ubolts. I also checked to make sure I could see the spring pin in through the hole in the axel.

Well I am sure by now most of you have long forgotten about this thread. It was a long deployment. Not looking forward to the next one any time soon that is for sure.

Anyhow, I finally got my tires on my rig!!! The usual complaints with bias swampers but.....I am happy.


this is what I started with

I love that color. I might paint my cruiser that shade of blue when I get around to the body work.

Great job!
