Just took some of this..., some of that - then threw it together - LOL



Bolts - 1/2"-13 X 7" - Qty 4

Nuts, locking - 1/2"-13 - Qty 4

Washers - 1/2" x 1 1/4 - Qty 16

Spacers - 1/2" x 1" L - 4

Angle iron - 1" x 1" X 9" L (I cut out the existing cross member w/ angle grinder - then installed this angle farther back to make room for the kick stand)


What you can't see - I cut 4 pieces of 1/2" pipe..., then installed them under the arms (two each side..., with the bolts going through) to give the arms more rigidity


Black krylon to paint the thing after I was done modifying

Yeah it does. You just have to actually get down and look underneath the bike the first few times you use it.
You have to get the rear pad behind the crankcase. It's simple but you have to look.

You decide. What's your bike worth to you? I used Grade 8 bolts when I did use a modded Fear Lift™, and I still didn't trust it
