Ralph delivered the rear wheel, which is 15" diameter
and 4.5"wide with a 170 imitation Firestone. Now begins
the challenge of getting everything in line, with the wheel
still in the center of the frame. I made some spacers in various
thicknesses that fit between hub and brakedrum. These will help
in determining the correct mods. Transmission will need to move
about 10 mm to the left I think. Next job is making a rear axle
and adding chain tensioners, then positioning rear wheel and
only then can I take final dimensions for the transmission.
