home made 4th wheel kit

[mnf7sp]

I followed a post on cutting my long spacer tube into two pieces. One at 28mm and one at 108mm. Something is not right! The 108mm looks short and the 28mm to long. Anyone have a link to the correct mod or am I missing something?

I did mine a couple years ago and worked out fine.Just cut the long one into two pieces.remember to remove enough for the wheel to mount. With your skid out it should be simple. Just line it up as to where the wheels are suposed to line up.

4th wheel modification

Your spacer dimensions are correct, look in the technical area under suspensions and they give the dimensions for cutting the original spacer into two with the same dimensions you made yours to.

I have the skid out. I double checked the 28 mm and the 108 mm. They are right on.

The problem is the orignal "short" spacer is only 25 mm (vs. 28 mm on the modified one) and the center tube at 108 mm does not leave the new 4th wheel with the same dimension from the rail to the wheel on each side. It is about 3mm off.

I would think the two "short" spacers for the center wheels should be the same.

Does anyone have a kit or suspension laying around to give me reference dimensions on the 3 center spacers?

I think I found the problem: NOTE!!! Do Not Use 28mm (1.103') and 108mm (4.25") for MONO.

This was not on the post I saved!

For the mono shock skid use:

8CR-47550-10 (wheel)
90387-2013L (spacer which is 4.379" long)
90387-20015 (spacer which is .972" long)

I guess I can make the 28mm shorter and buy one spacer!

If you call me tonight I can look and see if I have a spacer for you........so you do not have to buy one. I will ship it out on monday if I have one.

Thanks for the offer Todd, but I already ordered one yesterday for $9.00.

How do we get the tech post modified to be more obvious?
