going mid-perch tomorrow

I had mine done this past Saturday by the boys at TMX and immediately took it to NTB for a check and the alignment was dead on. I love both the ride and look of Mid Perch.

Actually it doesn't matter. I usually just take it out and leave it out. It's only there for the initial manufacturing process so the perch doesn't rotate. After that it's dead weight.

i did not know that. i made sure my friend put the set screw back in place thinking that it had some purpose. just goes to show how much i know. haha.

Wow Storm the sealer said they would do your mid perch? I asked mine and they said no they don't. If the dealer does it I would do it in a heartbeat.

Small dealer in a small town where everyone knows everyone. If you don't provide great service, you don't survive. Word of mouth is good and bad. You don't want bad in a small town! I may have them do it when I get my oil switched over to AMSOIL with the first change.

We tried that and the wd40. It's not the snap ring it's the blue ring with the "SVT" logo that is over the snap ring.

tap it with a rubber mallet....... after removing the set screw.....

did you get it done yet?

Tried that. I found an oil leak today so I have other issues to deal with now. Oh what fun. Hoping I can get the dealership to adjust the shocks now that they don't do what they are designed to do.

...wish I could find someone in Illinois or Indiana that could do the perch adjustment (and know what they are doing)
