  1. It is to lessen the strain on the driveline . And Docc's comment is true too.
  2. A spherical rod end does rotate and swivel but has no give. To properly in stall the factory reaction rod , you would want to install it and tighten both mounting fasteners ( that will tighten the center of the rubber bushings ) at ride height . This will be when your weight is on the bike. As far as rubber or solid bushings , it is a free country .
  3. Some Torx sockets will work in helping extracting socket head screws or USS in place of metric Allen head screws .
  4. Yes , there needs to be cushion in this arm . A rigid link is not a good deal .
  5. You could....and you would have a stiff arm linkage for this to work with / against . Think about that.
  6. Be sure to purchase a rotor removal tool ! Also , as far as what type of gooey to use on gaskets , buy a lot of different products and experiment on things... FWIW. I bought 10 different brands of Dry Film Graphite spray before I found one that suited me.
  7. Congratulations on your find !
  8. Just enough ( either Hylomar or Coppercoat or the other ) on both sides . The Hylomar gets my nod because if the part has to be removed the gasket will not be damaged or stick to the mating surface.
  9. I'm lazy....what is the part # ?
  10. Hondabond is ( I think ) a gasket eliminator. My vote is Hylomar or CopperCoat on the gasket surface .
  11. Please tell us more about what you found ?????
  12. Didn't Jimi Hendrix use Marshall amps ?
  13. Probably so . All bearings that are produced are metric . The 25x52x15 part # is also the bearing dimensions . I.D , O.D. & width . The 6205-2Rs should have those dimension.
  14. ! NZ dollar is $0.68 US dollar .
  15. That strong looking rubber mount is a pu$$y . Mine has been off for a long time.
  16. When you go for bearings....drop the 6 from the bearing prefix . It is a light duty version of the bearing. Instead of 6204 use 204 . Check them at your vendor to verify this,
  17. It has been 45 years ago this weekend that The Allman Brothers played @ Fillmore East and recorded probably the greatest live album of all time. I think it's time to put the CDs in and crank it up !
  18. I don't know how many are made of stainless steel . A lot of stainless is brittle and it will crack . The big drawback !
  19. These things need a 30a Maxi fuse / holder on this circuit .
  20. Best plate yet !
  21. You need to understand this "personal modification" will never stop........
  22. First , the rubber appears to be good. If it is o.k. then , take a flat file and file the surfaces flat on both sides of the inner portion and reinstall .Tighten the bolts to the correct torque and go !
  23. This site has many intelligent people and it is enjoyable to learn from them .
  24. It can't .....a resistance increase will not raise current so it would decrease the possibility of blowing a fuse.
  25. Are all buggies r.h. drive ?
