Then found the center of the hub. Then I placed a long streight edge across the frame. Then place the level vertically on the mark on the hub got it level and butted the streight edge to the level and clamped the streight edge. Then did the same on the other side and made my marks. I came up with 21 3/16 inches from the longest tip on the frame. the outside end is longer then the inside. I measured from the outside. Did I do this correct??? And is the 21 3/16 about correct???? I read Boyo's info on his and he came up with 20 19/32 inches. Thanks!
