    Hey, what do you do, tuck that bird in with pillows and blankets before you all go off to bed?

    Still nobody any suggestions on how to mount the wheelpants.

    The old center screw does not fit in the axsles, can I buy new ones or do I have to manufacture my own?

    Regards

    I believe there is a different mount plate for the spring gear. I have both I think. I will take some pics of both and post them here later today.

    The parts on top are for bungee gear. Parts on bottom for spring gear.

    Perfect!!!

    Could you by any chance get me some measurements from the groove gear parts, or do you have a template somewhere?

    Thanx,

    Hi John,

    how much are they?

    And do you also have the mounting point for the ATV axle?

    Tuna, just in case John does not pop back on this site right away, email or call the factory with questions for quicker response.
    I think they have another show coming up soon and may be preparing for it.
