I extended my shaft by 7/8". She never even noticed. I only did one side.

Long balling it?

Well mine seems to be fixed. But in looking it over I am definitely at the limit and maybe thensome (snapring limiting) the droop. Even after this I still have a slight "clunk" when hitting potholes so maybe that axle is bottoming out but not enough to pull out (thats what she said).. but I know that on my "test drive" when it popped out I didn't feel the clunk.. and now I do. So maybe, just maybe that clunk is the C clip hitting the limits at the same time the shock hits its lower limits??? Tempted to just take some measurements and have new shafts built for it. #IWannaBeRoger ;) No serious, that is a great idea.

Pass I don't like the 9" thirds true high nines are expensive as shit and the low opinion ones seem to want to back out the ring gear bolts even when safety wired. For that money I would look into steering 14 bolts

Did some work on my other ride last night. I had some stems machined for mounting the turn signals on my bike in tighter to the fender than the factory 2". I was redoing the wiring to check everything before I crimped/taped it as done. The left signal would not light up no matter what I did to it. After checking the wires, switching inputs, and pulling it back off to double check my soldering I took the lens cover off to reveal the light bulb was missing. Only then did I remember that bulb was burned out and I had bought a new pack to replace it when I put it back on the bike.

Dumbass.

LMAO.. thats great. Not gonna say I haven't done similar. Mine was more like "hey this thing works better with a fuse mounted in the fuse block!" :)

Oil change and swapped out the 3 idler pulleys. The weekend rain and deepwater 'crossings' on Houston streets killed one impressively...

That reminds me... I need to get a spare belt. I had one but used it as a replacement and didn't put another back under the seat for emergencies. Did you find a good place that sold the belt for cheap?
