how wide is your rear?

[Fowler]

Ok I am talking about the rear end of your trike.

Hopefully I will have the body removed from my donor vehicle tomorrow (88 S10 Blazer) and I will be able to start designing my new trike
Need to see the frame before I go any farther. Not sure how I will approach it yet.

Anyway I was thinking. What is a good width for the rear end. I may be narrowing the rear axle and frame or build my own frame.
I plan to have 1 seat up front for me and single seat in back for the Ol'Lady.

The last trike build before I decided on a stranded seat I chased the Ol'Lady around with the tape measure trying to measure her Butt. She was not happy about that.

I own a 12 Wing with a 14 Hannigan trike kit. It is 63 inches wide.

researching a bit I am finding trike widths from 60" to 75"
my Heathen VW Trike is 67"

the donor vehicle I will use is 63"

Im not sure if I will narrow it or not

I ordered a Diamond Custom seat once and and that was 1 of the measurements they required.That was fun info to get while the guy was on the phone.

Nice trike, I would bet that it will eat up a lot of tires in a hurry. Jim
