    Dennis Cling Model A hydraulic conversion kit

    Still searching... I've called AZ, NZ, CA chasing leads, but no luck yet. Does anyone know of someone who has one, but isn't using or maybe planned to use one but has it sitting on a shelf? All leads appreciated. Thanks!

    seat adjuster…but from what?

    Rear end pre load confusion

    Yes, Brent. This helps. To find the bearing pre-load I ended up with .045" of gasket thickness. Until the above quote from Tom Endy I hadn't seen the .020-.050 figure anywhere and being a complete novice I was under the impression a pair of .010 's and a .005 was gonna get this done. A few...
