I'm building a D60 with 9" ends and disc brakes. Should I be using some sort of spacer where the drum backing plate used to be?

Yeah I think so if not you are going to have the bolts back off on you down the road as it slowly bends the plate. Eventually causing the shit to walk out with tire and all, then your fawked.

I would think if your using grade 8 bolts, you should be able to shim it or something. Maybe some washers or something. Looks like if you didn't shim or space it they may end up walking out on ya.
Nice welds though, Matt.....;)
