Drop stand Help

[JRE]

Just bought this drop stand for my Shelby and when I installed it the stand wants to rotate to far forward when it's down. Anybody know how to fix that or what bike this is meant for.

Will these work?

I thought it might B- curved braces but others should be able to tell

I think you mite have a 28" stand there. Any case fyi the way it is now is easy fall over when parked around people.

Yea right now the wheel is on the ground

It looks like the ears on the dropstand are either worn or cut down. The A-frame needs to hit the ears/stops when it is just about vertical. build up the back edge with some new metal? Or you might be able to angle the ears down to the front so the stand hits the stops sooner.

Yea was going to try and rotate the ears first

Rotated the ears down for now. I'll mess with it more when I take the back wheel off to fix the previous owners repair he did back in the 40's. I need to find a nut that holds the brake arm on the Morrow hub.

I don't think it is the correct stand for the bike. In my experience, the drop out angle of the rear fork is what dictates how the ears should fit.

I had the same problem with a stand I got for my 29 Westfield.

I decided to use it on my 1918 Pierce Motor Bike and it fit like it is supposed to.
