Hey guys, Anybody like to report on these after using it for awhile. I've got one to put on & was just wondering if anyone has had any trouble with them.

Thanks, Murf2

I'm interested to hear if anyone has had issues as well. I stand behind them 100%. I used one all last year with no issues.

Thanks Murf

If you are kidding, please ignore the rest.

If not, I made some lowering collars last year. Due to the user agreement on BadWeb, I am not permitted to sell them on the site. I abide by the rules since this site is important to me. Too valuable resource to loose.

I guess you can't help me then. lol

Jason, I hope it didn't sound like I was questioning your product. I was just curious
how people were getting along with them. I'm putting mine in as we speak. Thanks again for the effort you put forth to make them.

Nate, Thanks for the info!

Just a plug for the lowering collar. I installed this for my trip south. I have done over 25,000 kms with it on and it makes a huge difference for me . Especially off road.

On the road the lower height. Makes negotiating the mental traffic down south easier.

It has handled the countless topes( speed bumps) in Mexico fully loaded. My only issue was, after installation there was not enough room for my tool tubes. So they had to come out.

Thanks Jason.

No, but the lower centre of gravity makes it easier to push to the shop ......

Sometimes I wonder what the Uly would feel like if she was as low as Loretta.

Jason, I would like to buy the dimensions... for a nominal fee of course.
It's something at the outer limits of my bench lathe/mill ability and I just scored a couple of feet of 1.5" T6061 barstock.
I can go a little bigger diameter if need be.

PM me

Let me think about it. Send me a pm so we don't cross any lines of the user agreement of Bad Web
