• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Lamonster highway brackets on 2013 rt-s sm5

    As I'm told confession is good for the soul....I'd like to thank Jacob @ Lamonster for showing me the error of my ways....seems I removed both tabs on the left lower panel and was trying to mount the bracket under it....Duh! its fairly straight forward when done correctly 😳

    Ok sir, I'm back at this ...can you give me the play by play you did? i see the bolt that holds the foot peg also tightens down the shifter .....I finally was able to loosen that...what's next? im told the end of the shifter should be approx 11 in off the ground....mine in neutral is approx 8"

    Shifter adjustment

    Thanks...I see a larger nut into the shift rod and a small connecting to the linkage ....do you remember which goes which way? The larger does not want to move and I don't want to create a bigger problem.....
