Re: Project '86

1" per side. I narrowed my factory arms but they were just a quicky job to get to a show last year. Finally getting around to replacing them with something official.

I looked into building them myself but Taylors price is tough to beat.

Re: Project '86

Both front wheels are bent and don't hold air. I borrowed them for fit up and when I am done with them I will drop them off to be straightened.

The bed is just sitting on the mounts. My gas tank mount is hitting one of the bed crossmembers so it won't slide forward enough. I need to pull it off and trim it, then I can get it in place and shim it up.

Thanks, it's mostly trial and error
Cool I think your work on the trans cover is exceptional and would be a shame to cover it up.
