    easy 904 band adjustment Q

    a guy posted that he loosened both nuts/shanks then tightened one till the driveshaft can just be turned with one hand then loosen it another 1/2 turn then locking it down then the same way with the other band except you turn the driveshaft the other way. I may have missed repeating something...

    7&1/4 vs 8&3/4 OAL. both BBP

    have a 7&1/4 in a 73 dart & the mag wheels/tires are very close to the outer fender. I would like to swap to an 8&3/4. Are these pretty much the same total width? thank you for your time. RR

    Abody SBP 7&1/4 vs 8&3/4 SBP overall length

    the wheelwell radius has been trimmed to where all of the wheel/tire is visible from the side tho you dont want the tire/wheel to stick out past the fender cuz when your bumped (& you will be!) it would flatten the tire. I think I'm gonna be good on the wheel/tire to spring clearance. I will...

    Abody SBP 7&1/4 vs 8&3/4 SBP overall length

    Good info, thank you very much blu. with the pattern change obviously I wont be able to throw the rim on there right now till I get the rears swapped but I will measure as best as I can this afternoon & with the SBP 8&3/4 being a bit longer I might get lucky! thank you again. RR

    Abody SBP 7&1/4 vs 8&3/4 SBP overall length

    CORRECTION: my mistake, this is a BBP 7&1/4 going to SBP 8&3/4 and unfortunately spacers ain't allowed in the class. I will measure the SBP 15 x 7 wheels that I have, the backspace & post it later but it is deep. RR
  21. Rapid Robert

    Abody SBP 7&1/4 vs 8&3/4 SBP overall length

    is the end to end wheel flange distance pretty much the same for the two? I'm swapping rears & having potential wheel backspace clearance issues from wheel/tire to leaf springs. I am not in a position to measure everything right now. any thoughts? thank you for your time. RR
