Default Good, affordable spring seat bracket
What's a good but affordable(a lot cheaper than the HD) bracket kit for a spring seat? Similar to the HD one just less coin? Thanks.

I've been looking into a spring seat and don't really know what it entails.

Lick's has a seat for $200, plus the hardware to mount it is an additional $150! I thought surely there is a cheaper way.

I am about to start making them, should have the brackets available in three weeks. I agree, the prices are insane!
