Lastly no day would be complete with out at least one SNAFU.
I picked up a set of 80-series wheels with some bald 35x12.50 TrXus's yesterday. My intent has always been to put these tires/wheels on the trailer. The wheels/tires you saw previously are intended for the cruiser once I start on that build.
Anyway, when I spec'ed this axle, I had these wheels in mind. Unfortunately I also had in mind to relocate the spring perches inwards about 2" on either side. Well I forgot all about that when I built the frame based on the existing perch width.
So....what does all that mean? The tires rub the springs HARD :whoops:
Fortunately I've got an extra set of wheel spacers kicking around that should fix me right up, but I hate using them on a 'new' build just as a matter of principle.
