About to get to the stage of mocking up my ford radius arms. I saw farmer Matt's arms were inboard, but I think it was a EB44 which already had narrower mounts.
I have the fullsize 44, and when I bought it I saw that the radius arms were angled inward at a really acute angle. I planned to extend the arms out with tube until the reached a point between the rails where I could put a crossmember, but now i'm not sure after looking at this pic:
Though I'm not sure this was the natural resting position for the arms,
it looks like they angle in less and I would have to extend the arms waaaaaay out. How far out is too far? Assuming no clearance issues, what would be the problem with extending the arms out to the gas tank (hypothetical situation, obviously).
