Ironman. That is indeed interesting. Todd and I measured the carriages that he had and they all measured the 12" length. That would make them all NF carriages. We also measured from the pivot point forward to the center of the mule drive attaching hole. IIRC that measurement was 19-1/2" on all of them. A different frame measured 20-1/2" on that length and the same 12" to the fork end. That was a white carriage and he said that one that was for his 982(?).

I think what I'll try tomorrow is to clamp a couple of flat bars on and extend them by that 1/2" and see if that helps resolve the issue.

If you would, could you measure from the fork pivot point forward to the mule drive attaching hole and let me know those results?

Also, are the forks on the WF units more of a 1/2 diameter hole versus a full deep U shape?

I will take pics of my fork with a tape measure on it showing the measurements in both the forward direction to the mule drive as well as rearward to the end of the fork and post them.

Thanks for the info and the assistance.

Lew. With Ironman's info, we may be closing in on a solution. Thanks for you assistance as well.
