Actually it looks like the screw/bolt at the bottom could adjust the tension, and the C-clamp could adjust the height. Yes, no, maybe????

The top half with the roller is adjustable with about 5 settings. the clamp and holder are pivot point, and you can change that for roller angle. I rolled all 4 and pulled the rear with it on my fastback. I just threw it together taking only the dimensions in consideration for my particular setup.

Thanx for the compliments guys, plan to pull my fenders even more, so i will do some more modifications to it. The roller isnt directly angle adjustable no, i can get a few different angles out of it by repositioning the pivot point. I was going to make it adjustable there, but the current setting worked well for what i needed. And yes it is very heavy, throws off weight distribution when in car, haha.
The wheels are 16x8 Circle racing wheels, forged aluminum http://circleracing.com/ . You can get just about any lug pattern and size/width. They weigh about 12lbs a piece (16x8) iirc. Thanks Johny5 and Ghettokracker, but just wait and see what i got comming out of the bag here next month ![]() |
