Wheel Pants

Post by M Lightsey »

Anyone have pictures of their wheel pants installations? Especially the mounting brackets, no sense trying to reinvent the wheel here.
Thanks,
Mark

The pants I bought were terrible (ASS). had to totally rebuild. During rebuild I laminated a piece of aluminum at the attachment points for a secure anchor. I then fabricated an extension on my axle bolts and threaded a bolt hole. See pics. 2 nd pic in second post.
