Do the drop arm…. It’s so nice not struggling to change a TRE than refurb the old style.Hi mate! Brilliant thread, I have literally just bought the gwyn Lewis shock turrets, and bottom clamps and spring seats etc, and have been wringing my hands as to what shocks to get, having seen your ome set up, and as Gwyn is virtually next door to me, I think I'll give him another visit!
One question, I've never heard of the d1 drop arm mod before, would you mind giving a quick explanation as my drop arm ball joint has slight play in it again so will have to tackle it sooner or later, many thanks and again, cracking thread and work!
You will be forever trying to get a boot to fit on the drop arm, its just a bad design, the drop arm has insufficient lip to hold a boot on throught the required articulation, the ball and cup joint is not the best design either, and it is non greaseable.
With conversion angles increase very slightly, but thats what a ball joint / TRE is designed for etc.
PS I will only use LEMFORDER, best of the best IMO
do the glyn Lewis TRE covers fit the old style drop arm.Thanks.
I have a new drop arm spare, ordered it incase I had issues replacing just the ball joint. It wasn't easy but not bad.
I intend to take it apart and install a grease nipple in the bottom plate .
Its not a grease problem (well it is now its split)
The point is the angles and the rubber splitting (far sooner than expected) So was thinking to replace a better rubber next time with the ploy 1. Guess I will get there before he does.
Guess I just had a ****epart.
Oh and if you had a bigger garage it wouldn't look so cluttered....... for long.
