Default Help with wide glide conversion rotor spacers

Since the Street Bob hub can be dual disc, I'd like to reuse it on my 23" wheel build and already do have the fat bob trees. I know they sell the wide glide conversion kits but I already have the axle and would need appropriate axle spacers and rotor spacers.

Anyone know where to get just the rotor spacers? All I've been coming across are the complete kits or spacers for 39/41mm front ends.

If you can't find any, Just go to your local engineering shop and tell them what you need, I machined my own in no time at all

i cut them on the mill, but first went to ace to get general spacers to find out just what size i needed, from there i milled them out, then they where welded to the mount... get your exact sizes and any machine shop can make these cheap! i wanted mine out of alum so they could be welded to the bracket

ace spacers


machined


welded and coated

Joe I'm talking about the thick spacers that are bolted to the hub and the rotor attaches to it. Hawg Halters has a kit and they said they would sell both the axle spacers and rotor spacers. Here's the kit:http://hawghalters.com/triple-trees/.../prod_456.html

ah ok ok, so you need the complete piece. something like that would not be a simple spacer on each bolt you would need the full contact. that would be $$$

Man if 13" rotors weren't so damn pricey I'd go that route so I'd still have a single disc to show off the 23" wheel
