Exclamation Help. Pro 1 trees and riser bushings.
Need some help from those with Pro One trees. Am i missing something on the riser bushings? Got a set of Alloy Art Gooden Tites with the flat head bolt, but they are entirely too thick for these trees. the counterbore in the bottom of the triple tree is larger than the diameter of the washer and is 3/4" deep into the tree. It seems as though I could use half the bushing with a washer on top? Nuthin ever works the first time....

Yeah the Pro One bushings aren't as thick. The only place I have found to get replacements is from Pro One. I also had to make a trip to the hardware store for shorter riser bolts.

So THAT'S what they mean by "thin" trees. Guess its back to waiting for the UPS guy.....

Appreciate the response Ash! Know anyone who needs some Gooden Tite's?

Haha! No. I did the same thing and ended up giving mine to a friend.
