Bearings/wells/spacers job PICS
Here is the sum of my weekend. 13 hours total.
Replace R rear wheel bearings Clean and Undercoat all wheel wells Rear lugs to front, front lugs to rear. 2” spacers on rear Stock rear spacers to front (need to machine lip off to fit still) Repack front wheel bearings. Paint calipers and dustsheilds black. Kinda hard to tell from the pics but it really makes a huge difference. Can’t wait to get the front wheels on!

Who made those spacers? They aren't hub-centric, but only lug-centric.

They are hub-centric on the inside (fit over existing hub tightly).
Not on the outside though. They are a 'no play' lug centric fit on the outside. Not too worried about it yet. The lugs have a big W stamped on them, I didn't record the spacer PN. Either Weltmeister or the lugs are Welt.

Nice and clean!
I did my brakes as well, but used some high temp vinyl decals to finish them off.

Hey lou that looks great. I never even though about that for the early.
I just wanted to have black and shadows behind the wheel. i bagged those spacers from a 911 guy for $70 the pair. Not bad for 2".
