Made my own breather bolts using 3/8"-16 all thread rod cut to needed length and chucked in hand drill with bit mounted in vise. The reason for making my own is Arlen Ness Big Sucker intakes exit internal and I dont want to drill and tap the intake and the stock bolts are too short and no one makes a length long enough. (2 3/4" total length here)
This way I can remove their internal exit breather bolts, insert rod as a hollow stud and secure with chrome washer and nut and tubing secured to rod end or add a 90 degree fitting to a barb and then plumb both sides to a T and then down to the ground via breather filter. Just another way to accomplish what others are doing with kits but home made.

That is outstanding! I just read through your other post, and I think it's even something I could do.
If I can do it, you can! Posted a couple pics with run and brakes applied. Nothing earth shattering, but it is a little better to have all lights go bright when brakes are applied.

Nice! I cut the heads off of ss bolts, using only the threaded portion of the bolt, to make billet light mounts and ran wires through the hole. I thought I was the only one that would drill out threaded stock. lol

I wanted to use hollow threaded lamp rod that is common but not in size I needed. That may have worked in your case but nothing beats solving problems in your own ways!

Yeah, but I wanted ss, no rust, since it mounted to chrome fender struts and the threads were not typical.
Wow, just finished 187 pages of great ideas. Now if somebody would just post up on how to rig up a garage door remote...
Thats easy for me, i took an old remote i had and used super strong double sided tape and taped it to the under side of the mid frame air deflector so no one knows that its there but me.Just pull into the driveway reach down beside my leg and push the button, easy peasy!!
