Scrubby Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 I like the linkage from Elka but its too wide to fit in PRM's skidplate, I even asked them to make one 1/4 of an inch deeper. no dice. it literally needs less than a 1/4 inch to fit. good product though.

I think the collar on the spring was all the way up. ( shock was setup for a longer arm) but it's in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a grinder to my skidplate to make it fit originally because of the -2 arm hitting the stock linkage. Don't be scared. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrubby Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) im not scared, but ive cracked the u channel off one, and im working on the second. the linkage scrapes somewhere in the travel, 2 groves were worn in the bottom of the channel. it like a paper thickness clerarance at rest. That's with the stainless plate removed too, and some smoothing of the edges of the anodized link Edited January 26, 2017 by Scrubby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gusto Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Claude, that would be a good next project for you. I also think a splash guard for anyone running pods would be another good product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaegerEliminator Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 That's a great visual comparison 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheedawg28 Posted January 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 That's a great visual comparison Yea I hadn't found a picture of the comparison. I thought all they had done was just made the bone longer ha. But they made more geometry changes than I had thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
