I see, just trying to grasp what you did. I heard on the B210 you can just cut the back bushing, half off, then throw it on the front (i thought) and it would pull it forward a little bit. give it better caster and track better. Maybe you are supposed to just cut half of it off and leave it out? lulz.. Time to do some reading.

Re: 71 Turquoise Goon
I've got a spare set that Klotz machined for me that don't require any bushing surgery. Just stack washers behind it. I'm into them $20. They fit 510 or B210. If any of you guys are interested PM me.

My be tracks funny with the fatty tires, a little more caster would do me wonders.

Re: 71 Turquoise Goon
Yeah, From my understanding reducing the bushing thickness helps, mine just needed a tiny bit to clear enough. So far it feels solid, been driving it daily and its improved every aspect of the ride except its more bumpy. Excited to see your B sunday, did you have it at Canby?

I can bring them to Blue Lake with me. You still want the steering wheel you didn't pick up a couple weeks ago?

Word, thirteens look real nice. 13's and 14's in super low profiles are getting a bit harder to find these days.Skeletonbonez wrote:Nothing to update really...

Re: 71 Turquoise Goon
Thats a different one, I believe that one is Springfield, if its the same one im thinking he has a red wagon as well....
The one i'm talking about is this one here, it's a 4 dr with Iron Crosses. Apparently Kelvin said he works on it.

Re: 71 Turquoise Goon
We just went out to Florence and cruised up 101 a little til we found a good spot to hold a safety meeting. We gopro'd part of the trip home through the hills. Not sure how the shots turned out.
