Turns out I forgot to install the special washer three speeds use on the drive side axle which is why the dish was off so bad in my stand, now I need to respoke the wheel lol.

as found
wow that was a nice find! very clean. I'm defiantly going to have to do some wheel work myself, both of them are cracked and rusted out. I have never tried wheel building, i'm sure i'm going to have to do a lot of research on it.
i got my bike all torn down for a rebuild and it seems someone had done a spray paint job on it which is flaking off, I am hoping i can get that layer off. I can see the original paint underneath which is yellow that fades to red in the rear of the bike which matches the sears screamers. I don't know to much about the muscle type sifters either, Its going to be an interesting journey
