Default My Homemade Wheel Spacers

I decided to try and make me a set of 3 inch rear wheels spacers today and it turned out pretty good for my G1. I couldn't afford a set of them so I made a set.

Thanks my friends for all your nice comments. Yea I guess now I am going to have to come up with some sort of fender flares don't have a clue yet on how to make them. Last night was the first time I have had the 82 G1 out of the garage in 2 years and me and a friend drove it down the road and it seemed to run nice and true. It was the first ride I took it for with the 10 inch stretch also and the gas and brake extensions I made and everything seemed to do great. ExgoneWild I just eye balled them when I welded them together I used 1/4 inch steel and a 1/4 inch thick pipe. Layed them inside of the mag wheels and held them tight and on the other side took a pencil and went through the lug holes and marked them then put them on my drill press and drilled out the holes. Thanks again everyone for your comments have a good day and hope you all enjoy the 4th.
