Default wide glide triple tree dimensions?

anybody got 'em? i have a 39mm narrow set up on my chopper, wanna put a fat 16" spoke wheel on the front. anyone have the hole coordinates from wide glide triples? i'm an amateur machinist, but i can make some chips, and if i make some trees, it's alot cheaper than $500, so..... thanks, dave moss

i would consider you my daddy if you would do soand give you my first born, when i have one, that is.... the hole spacing between the fork legs is what i need (i think...)...just got to thinking, dunno if the mounting dimensions at the end of the forks are gonna be different, but i'm gonna have to make spacers anyways, so..... but anything you got would be most appreciated.... my email is dmoss41@tampabay.rr.com not gonna do this for bizness $$$, ain't gonna pimp your work, i just got the jones to put on of those big wheels on my front, and if i had the dimensions, the trees would be a good project.... thanks again, dave moss

no problem,, will shoot you the dims 2mo just so long as i remember,, if for any reason i dont just kick me up the ass..

i ran mids on my Street Bob and had to make spacers 17mm wider each side,, i think,, it could of been 17.5,, i forget

love the fact your making them ,, it doesnt bother me even if you want to sell them i just think its all cool and happy to help..

the more people help each other in this business the better

tried to edit it, but there's some kinda 5 minute thing.... i could do the centers on my mill w/a centerfinder, but if you've scanned them, the spindle position would be great. don't know if it's different from the narrow glide.... thanks again....
