final drive pan looks straight inside wheel. I'd say they haven't been turned.

| The guys that owned my 180 before me , always felt it should do better , they turned the final drive a hole back , it done better , they drilled a hole between ; that was the sweet spot , left everyone scratchin their heads !!! |

| I cannot imagine ANY Antique Club allowing rules allowing the rear axles to be tipped altering the wheelbase length. Try it, and I'll bet you'll be told to change it back or don't show up anymore. |

| I guess the Antique classes may have a problem with the rotating the finals , never thought of that , but it sure works on modified, pro farm classes !! |
