narrowed axle

Post by Lasse DK »

hay. I'm confused .. I would like to have narrowed axle on my type1. and will start by making a set. I can see I can get 3 inches narrow. and will make mine to fit them. but can not figure out measure. total measures mine. is 28 3/8 = 720mm. the 3 inch short it is 23 11/16 = 601mm it is 119mm = 4.6 inch. can anyone explain it to me

Your existing axles are probably 67 and later long axles. The 3" shorter are probably compared to 66 and earlier short axles.
