Reply to "Vintage Spyder Build"

That plumbers wrench will never fit into a Spyder, there isn't enough room.

The open end for the locknut is 41mm. I bought one for $16 on Amazon, Lisle tools made it.

I believe the "Allen" center adjuster is actually a 12-point. Anyway, a 22mm or 7/8" hex nut fits just fine. I ground mine down so it could engage but still fit with the fiberglass trunk wall. I welded it to a piece of 1" steel 1/8" thick and put a small bend in it to get it away from the open-end, making the home-made tool hang vertically from the steering box.
