I can give you help on the photo thing mate, read here: http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=5 - Check all the "STICKY" topics.

With the arm mate, will you have enough clearance on the tyre when you bring it back in together? Also, have you modified the arm with the wheel in a central position? Seems obvious but sometimes people get carried away with the arm work and forget.

it's not smack on middle but i havent re-set it back in the jig so yes it is in the centre ,at first i folded up the tin wheel runner as you can see so the wheels are even and then i ran a string line for the frame to make the jig

check here for another idea if you're not set on the blade arm - this is my GS conversion..
