Well I just secured a Fender roller from Autobahn will have it Friday through the weekend. Talked with Randy, very nice guy......The price is $50 so what ever you guys want to pitch is fine with me. I will be picking it up friday morning before work and be available after 6ish that night.......I close my store on Saturday so will only have until 2pm but have the entire day Sunday off......I have a heat gun to aid in the warming of the metal and paint, but I think the 100 degree days will also help.[/b]

Where are you located at?

ahh kinda....but not sure if the lack of a sway back is adding to this, should be
back on track by the end of the week. I am in a rental now so no damage is
happening as of right now...

on a different note, i called the place that did my wheels and they said they offer something
called spring spacers to help with the rubbing...never heard of them, but it sounds like
they reduce the spring compression so the wheel doesn't dip into the fender as much.
The cost + install is close to what the fender rental is, and it sounds like it makes the
ride a little more harsh, they were not able to say if this caused uneven tire wear tho.

Yea those don't sound like they would be good for long term maybe a temp fix..............



Well I am thinking like 10 am to start working on this, that sound good? It will let me enjoy breakfast with the wife and get set up for everything. Plus I need to reinstall my parts.


Anyone else.................Nows the time..........it will be fun............I promise I will only use the choice cuss words when things don't go perfect.......j/k

That spring spacer thing sounds just like what I think it sounds like. Raises the ride hieght by placing a space between the body and the spring. That's what it sounds like so that's what I'm gonnas say it is.

yeah...figured that, but thought I would put it out there...in the age of eliminating wheel gap it seems silly to try and add some...
