still trying to find a solution for the grease caps that don't fit because the rimmer stub axles are 1/4 in too long. Any ideas of caps with same diameter but deeper 'dome'?

For now the old steelies will go on (spits) and i will probly keep them (tidy up a bit, new rubber) to keep the cost down, and upgrade them to minilites with 185 /70 R13 dunlop D83J's later.

Also, I've done engineering calcs on the herald seat runners and 2mm 6xxx aluminium and that will be fine for floors. The orig floor was 1mm steel, so that will do too, and is a cheaper option as i'll be able to cut fold and weld them myself (I think) and if i stuff it or it looks crap revert to the original (expensive) plan of getting aluminium cnc cut and folded and welded professionally. Quote for that was $300 (AUD) per side about a year ago so could be more.

Bye for now.
