ri702bill 8,319 #2 Posted July 11, 2022 Excellent work!! Not too much teeter-totter room from the pivot, but some. Did you line the bores with bushings?? Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,856 #3 Posted July 11, 2022 So cool! Is that bent rectangle tubing or fabricated and smoothed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Bill 633 845 #4 Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) The axle started as a bent 2"X3" rectangular tube. It was bent with minimum bend radius and the center pivot is as high as it can go. The new fabricated frame will have notched angle iron side rails so the axle can pivot the same as OEM. Both the center pivot and the spindle tubes have greaseable bronze bushings.
