Would anyone happen to know how far is the reasonable standard that one can have a hub face from an axle perch?
If you go too far away from the spring, then too much strain, like a lever, is placed on the axle between the perch and hubface.
I’d like to upgrade my axle to a 3500 (from 2000) while at the same time moving the hub face outboards so I can mount 33” matching wheels and tires at 5x150.
Does anyone know if I could do an 85” axle with 60” perches so there is 7.5” excess axle on each side of the perches?
