Default what widener for mip cvd?

Can anyone please tell me which rear widener will give the same width as running the MIP CVD w/ wideners? I am running the MSD ultimate axle C and the increased steering range knuckle from RCP. Thanks in advance for anyone that responds.

Is that it? I already purchased the stainless steel rear axle shafts.

If it makes you feel better-- I did the exact same thing !- Same exact build set up-- then I noticed "It looks a little weird"- I just got the other of CVD's I ordered recently to correct my different "width's" problem. Opps-Guess I didnt plan it that well- Oh well --More "spare" parts for ANOTHER BUILD.

I thought the cvds said you caould do stock width, .25" per side or .5" per side. If they add .25" per side you could do the blackfoot stubs in the rear.

Yes, I could do stock width on the front with the MIP CVDs, but I would like to try using the widened front hexs and possibly widen the rear if possible. I guess if anything, I'll just make a narrow crawler.

I was using 16mm Tobee wideners on the rear. It was really close to the same width as the MIP wide hexes. I think Junfac makes some around this width also.

Tobee and Junfac? I did a search for both and didn't see any. Would you give me a link please? Are there any others? I guess I can always just sell the stainless axles to a friend or on here! I might just end up ordering the CVDs and have everything equal.
