banshee4670 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Posted October 17, 2009 hey guys I bought some ac blackline nerf bars and they didnt come with instructions. I can not for the life of me figure out how these are supposed to bolt on and not rattle around when they are on. Can somebody who has these please help me with some pictures or advice on how to put mount these? I am new to the HQ but am very impressed so far with all the knowledge on here. Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Posted October 17, 2009 Simple to put them on. I have the same ones just not black. Do you have them mounted up already? Ok you bolt the new black peg mounts in place of the old pegs on both sides leave the bolts a lil loose so you can still move them around until there all on. Then slip but nerfs on and bolt down both sides up front near the motor mount. Then now that the front is tight, well then tighten up both big bolts to the frame on both sides TIGHT!!! Then if you want to make them snug/solid as hell like mine and what the pros do also, is drill straight through between the pegs and the peg mount vertically up and down then put a bolt and washer from the top and a lock washer and nut on the bottom. This way it makes at very solid and no vibes what so ever. It just ties it all together properly and nice Understand all that? Where are you having problems? If you really need pics i can post how mine are for you. Quote
banshee4670 Posted October 17, 2009 Author Report Posted October 17, 2009 thanks. that is what I couldnt figure out. I had them on but thought that something was missing because they just rattle around and didnt seem solid at all. Drilling the hole and using a bolt sounds like it would work perfect. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't leaving soemthing out. I have the silver ones without the heel guards, love the way they look and cant wait to try them out. Thanks a lot for the help and the quick reply. Quote

Do you think I could use a piece of all-thread and still use these nerfs? I think I will need to drill the hole in the new peg mounts bigger. would it be the hole on the piece of the peg mount that goes inside the nerf bar or the outside hole that i would need to make bigger? I have the peg mount here but dont have the bike to look at. Thanks again for the help. Quote

Post up some pics of what your talking about when you get a chance. Make sure your careful drilling through the peg and mount though, doesn't have to be a big diameter bolt but a decent size so it don't shear off. Throw up pics when you can. Do you need to see how mine are? Quote

Do you need to see how mine are? yeah the rear hole where the frame goes through to both sides. The threaded piece on the inside of the frame broke off in the frame. I have read on here about people taking one long piece of threaded bar and running it all the way through and then boring out their pegs and using a nut and lockwasher on the rear mount. I will try and get some pics soon. Not very good with computers but will attempt it. Do you know what I am talking about doing? I have a drill press so I can get the hole on the peg mount bored out straight. If it isnt too much trouble I would like to see yours. Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 Ok i just sent the pics to you PM box. Go check. Just didnt want to clutter this up here with a bunch of pics. Quote

Sorry to drag up an old thread guys, but is there any chance I can get a copy of those photos? I am ordering a set of these nerfs today/tomorrow and want to know exactly how to do the mod to stiffen it all up. Cheers, Mike Quote
