I thaught you needed to turn the wheel itself. Looks good so far. Intrested in seeing your fender widened.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #625998 Dchopper73 (User) FAT is where its at!

If so you might be able to cut about 1/4" from the outside end, but you will loose the oil seal and be up to the bearing. If you cut the inside posts of the cush hub, the posts and center of the wheel hub, you may also get 1/4". The rubber dampers need to be trimmed too. I am looking forward to you surgery with the wheel.
