    well, son of a bitch, that explains why it wouldn't work and I was told nothing about a spacer. I have had these in my garage for almost a year. I'm trying it out tonight. Thank you for the information.

    It’s thunder lightening and raining here, so I’ll have to try tomorrow. I have the 1.25 wheel spacers already but will anything rub not lifted?
