the 85 saddle is 1/2" wider than the 50 frame rails, so i just made a pair of 1/4" steel plates to slide down each side of frame. this does move the wheels out a bit on each side, but you can offset the wheels when you order them from any wheel company. i paid $60 for the complete front clip from the junk yard. some people will cut the saddle in half and remove the required amount and weld it back together to keep the wheel width the same.
Any saddle from 68 to 87 will fit.
