Also has anyone ever put there truggy on a Hudy system. If so did you notice with the 1's pointed out in the rear toe plate. Did you notice you were actually at 5 degrees toe and not 3. I put in the .5's in pointed out and I was still just shy of 4 degrees.
yip i noticed it all out and the toe plates are wrong as i did notice that what i did was put them in and see were they were are and the instruction manual was wrong

thanks in advance
they kept the footprint of the chassis the same and extended it on the rear behind where it hooks onto the box so its a direct drop on for 1.0 or 2.0 the 2.0 actually fits a little bit better.

Actually the B hole in the 2.0 hubs would be the very inner hole on the 1.0 hubs. They added the 4th hole to the inside of the origional 3.

I didn't need to scrub anything...just spray the foam on and let it sit for a few seconds and then rinse it off (Removed the radio tray first..of course!). Hit is with air compressor to remove the water and I was done....less than 10mins total clean time. No residue or staining, plus no fumes like other nitro cleaners. This stuff is great!!! It comes in a large can that should last you a long time. You should be able to find it at any Harley dealer or motorcycle shop. I'll be buying more soon!

Hole B on the Older rear's is now hole C on the 2.0 rear's....that's how i meant to say it...but didn't want to go look at the manuals to figure out which A,B,C,or D


Hole B on the 2.0's is 2nd In from the inside....same with the 1.0's....#/letter starts from the inside.

Only two 2. rear hubs left boys, get em fast! I decided on and bought a .21 VSpec last night, as I still am only a sportsmen level driver.

The shock stands where through the cap after a few gal.

Ive had a couple caps round out on me.....i just make sure the plastic insert that goes on the stand off first is in good condition and not worn down to allow the cap to round out easier.....please describe exactly what is happening to your caps ?

Afer some time the edge of the shock stand wears itself in the cap. This makes the cap go leak where the edge kind of cuts a grove in the cap.
Specialy in the rear du to the extra too in at the rear.
