I don't think so. I didn't actually measure it, but it is pretty close to 6".

Got my new tires in today. Impressive shipping from Cart Parts Plus by the way. I ordered them on a Monday afternoon and they were at my house on Wednesday!

The front tires are still hitting the steering arm..


I didn't notice until I posted this picture, but I just might have put the right steering arm on the left side and vice versa.

Anybody??

Looks like it. The taper at the end of the steering like is opposite of mine. My arm is bolted up on top of the steering knuckle also......If that makes a diff.......Did both the ties rods drop in ok?

THats what I was thinking Mike. Try to reverse the arms... If it doesnt work, may need to find some small spacers...

I did in fact have the steering arms on the wrong side. I switched them and everything fits perfectly.

Thanks again guys!
