Their website looks good. And you have tested them. Too cool.

I've know this guy for quite a while and been to his house once or twice. Has his own take on Johnson lifters. Doesn't show the evo ones, but he does them and they're priced very good. Call for info on them.

I have had these in my bike for a couple of years and are fine. I like the fact that they are big axle lifters.

Crane Cams big axle lifters 3-2050. set of four for $189.95

Anyway I read lots of reviews on these when I did my top in couple years ago. I put these in and no problems so far with around 12K on them.


They are not TC lifters...TC lifters look quite different around the wheels....

Sorry for highjacking your post RHL but maybe we can all learn something here or at least maybe I can.

[QUOTE=Spanners39;15401108]They are not TC lifters...TC lifters look quite different around the wheels....


Spaners I think we are both a little confused now....lol....The ebay link I posted was for the one's that I bought. I know they are not TC. They are Hylift-Johnson lifters for an EVO. I had assumed those where the Johnson Hylift lifter that I had read about and had never noticed, until Rip pointed it out, that they instead Hylift Johnson. So now I am thinking that I have bought the wrong lifters but when I look for Johnson Hylift the only thing I find on the net is either the Hylift- Johnson company in Muskegon, Michigan or the Johnson Lifter Company in Taylor Michigan. When I look at the Johnson website the only harley lifter they list is for a TC. So now I don't know if I really bought the lifters I wanted or not. They seem be doing fine but I would really like to know for just piece of mind.
