Thanks! It too is a work in process. I traded a Sportster for it to a guy that new very little about turning wrenches on cars. He didn't have deep pockets to have it worked on, so he chose to let it go. His loss is my gain.

I put a Steeda quadrant in yesterday. No more skinned elbows trying to readjust that plastic one! I'm glad you didn't have a rod knocking.

Spend a little extra on this one, well worth it. You'll need a firewall adjuster and this kit has one. http://www.summitracing.com/search/b...s?autoview=SKU
