Is this going inside the hub?

You could try to find some 1/2” ID tubing and cut to length, slide it over?
I’m having a hard time visualizing this sorry

The 1970 Rupps used one like the fox bikes did, Jim Kise makes a repro, Maybe shoot him an email to see what the measurements are on them. Had you asked a couple of weeks ago I could have given you an answer as I had someones 1970 Rupp apart here, but its all done and gone now.

Heres the Rupp one Jim has for the Rupps (and yes they are for 1/2" axles and 5/8" bearings):

#15263 WHEEL BEARING SPACER 1970 all except CHOPPER


Actual Fox part number for there part is 203-611 if anyone reading this has something like above sitting a bag on a shelf and been trying to figure out what the hell its for....Never know :shrug:

Worst case use 1/2" ID bearings and make your own spacer out of 1/2" id tubing, but not as strong a setup.

Thank you Markus,
I guess posting a video is pointless

It was difficult to post the video I've been working on it since 2 o'clock this afternoon.
Tomorrow I'll call Black Widow and see if their part suites my needs.
Thank You again Markus

I finally called Black Widow and talked to Jim.
He said the wheel spacer on his sites will not fit my fox.
So my search for a Fox Wheel Spacer continues.
If anyone has one please message me.

I have a feeling I am going to have to find another resource for the spacer.
I'll be using my original Fox Corporation knobby wheels from my next rebuild.
And put the reject mag wheels on when and if I resolve the spacer issue.
I may post a video of my previous Three year rebuild of my Fox Condor and my Faux Fox Spoiler Reject.
It has been built with parts from my rejected parts pile.
