turbowrenchhead Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 (edited) My 25 year old fenders are sagging. The rear shock isn't set up right either and I'm not getting the stance I want. I tried shortening the rear shock link. That gave me a little better stance. I still wasn't happy with the way it looks. So I came up with this.....

turbowrenchhead Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 so what made it not sag exactly I made two fender stays. One for each side. I took 1/8" thick by 1" wide steel flat stock and bent it up to go from the frame to the corner of the fender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free yellow banshee Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Could just go to a hardware store and buy some aluminum flat bar for $5, cut and bend how you want it. Drill two holes and your good. I personally think you bent yours too far up... But whatever, it's your bike! I have aluminum stock here at work. I'm going to make some.

Glenyboy Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I used two L brackets and bolted the short sections together, they just happened to be the perfect size. I'll post a pic when I get in from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
