Wayne thanks for another round of great advice from you. Oh by the way, I did make the quadrant, It works great, Thanks.
The 8" wheel I have on now has a 4.5" BS with a 275 tire. The tire is at the outer edge of the fender. If I were to put a 295 on the wheel I would need 5" BS to get the .5" [1" total width .5" on each end] back at the edge of the fender. Now, if I use a 10" wheel the 5" BS turns into a 7" BS and there lies the problem, Weld Wheel does not make a 7 BS only a 6.5 or 7.5. The 7.5 will most likely bring the tire in too far hitting that 2 o'clock area.. The 6.5 will hang the tire out .5" of the fender. aaaarrrrggg!!!
Possibly a 7.5" BS with a .5" spacer, but I would have to look at the stud length.
I'm ready to just install my Tri-ax shifter its easier on my brain right now!!!
