Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

235/60x16 are 27.1" tall and 9.25 tread width

255/70x16 are 30.05" tall and 10.03 tread width

265/70x16 are 30.5" tall and 10.43 tread width.

Both will be about 3" taller, and 3/4 to 1 1/4" wider

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

I have some 15" cragers. They have the 3 point spinner. Need to be blasted and re diped or painted. I have no use for them but they are for a s10. I think 5x4.5 is that correct.

No 5X4.75. F**d is 5X4.5 Unless it's a Uni Lug

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

I think it's a uni lug, it's got little washers that go in so I believe you can change the lug patter if you have the correct ones.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

sorry for thread jacking 198. what rims are they the S/S or the 610? and how much did you spend for them if you dont mind. I need to sell mine. I have no use for them. The chrome is chipping off so they need to be blasted.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Went out tonight and changed my 6 lug rearend to my new 5 lug 3.07....God it's so much fun doing this by yourself and trying not to scratch it.

Guess I'll start the 5 lug swap next.......Looking real forward to getting the ball joint rivets out.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Went out this evening and started my cheap disc brake swap using 1987 spindles...... Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be getting the rivets out of the top ball joints....... The hard parts over with now it's all tore apart and ready for re-assembly.....Pics coming soon.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Well things aren't working out to good for me on my disc brake swap.......I guess the 87 spindles I bought are not 87's after I had them powder coated.......Wheel Bearing want fit......Backing plate hits lower a arm......What a pain in the A$$..........

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

from 81-up there are 2 different spindles...one is for 1 inch rotors, and the other is for 1 1/4 inch rotors. the bearings don't inter-change

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Thanks.........But the backing plate shouldn't be rubbing on the end of the lower control arm, that's why I think these are the wrong spindles...Maybe they are 1988 and up ??????????????
