On my Ram, I converted my VO fenders to using a Berthoud strut; I was catching my toe on the eye-bolt/strut/cup-washer assembly on the back of the front fender: by switching to the Berthoud strut, which is flattened across the back, and uses two smaller bolts off to the sides from the center, it's really improved the situation... the times my toe does come on contact, which is far less often now, it can slide down the fender instead of catching. (Canti-Rom is fenderless... but, w/ 40's in there, I'm not getting a fender in there, too...) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
