Default Adj. Pushrods
Does anyone make or is there anyway to install adjustable pushrods without buying new shorter tubes?

Yes they do. I even got the tube holder with the adjustable pushrods. A little tight but they work with stock tubes.

Smith bros. Are fuel moto pushrods. Same same just different badges. Strong u can use stock tubes but it takes longer to adjust. Well worth the time.

I put a set of Andrews in mine with the stock tubes. It is much easier with the short ones, but can be done.

I run rivera adjustable pushrods, colony collapse-able covers and s&s h2 lifter spacers. these work like a charm and no worries above pump up and collapsed lifter. startups have no noise after sitting for weeks.
