I have set up a mII IFS for my '35. . . I built a home-made crossmember to ElPolacko specs (only much prettier), then I bolted the parts together- Speedway MII dropped spindles, Speedway upper and lower arms Granada rotors I used the granada rotors to gain the extra track width. All over the net, all I have found is people stating that stock mII is 56-1/2" wide from hub to hub and it is 58" with Granada rotors. I want that 58" track width. For some reson my set-up adds up to 56-1/2". I checked to make sure that I have stock spec Granada Rotors, and I do. I double checked the dimension between the lower arm mounts and it is 21-3/4" which is standard MII width. Does anybody have an MII set up with Granada rotors that is actually 58" wide. . or is this one of those things that bounces around the internet echo chamber that everyone just assumes is true? I can still get there with some modifications, but if there is an easy mistake to point out I'd rather hear that. I already bugged ElPolako about this but I thought I should put it out to a wider audience to see if someone has the same set-up as me.
Is there not a sleeve that goes behind the bearing that comes in the kit to convert to Granada rotors on a stock M2 spindle. This is for using a Granada bearing, I haven't done it myself but I remember reading about it. I'm getting forgetful and half blind too, so...... I think it was the kit for the caliper mounts for using metric GM calipers... or something likr that..
Don't you need to use the "wide" control arms to get the wider track width? When I ordered my TCI MII kit, I had that option. Mine uses Caprice rotors, but the extra width is gained through the wider control arms, I believe.
