Adapting front spindles
« on: November 06, 2007, 09:22:07 pm »
Is there a way to adapt 3/4" front J-Spindles to fit 5/8" aluminum wheels. I thought about cutting the horizontal part off and welding 5/8" on, but I didn't know if it would hold or not. Anyone here got any ideas?


Thanks,

I'll have to pull them out of the box again and look. I just got them for my winter project build.I know the rear ones are 8" 4x4, and the front ones are 6". If they do have the 3 hole kart pattern, I'll be giving you a call tomorrow George.

Thanks lots,
