Default Made some adjusters for my rear T2's

I completed a little project today. I've wanted some extended rebound adjusters for my T2's for awhile now but I never got around to making them. I finally ordered the parts earlier this week and they came today so I threw them together. I used the following parts:

EKLIND 54920 T-HANDLE HEX KEY 2MM 9'' ARM CUSHION

and

https://www.surplussales.com/ShaftHa.../Knobs-13.html

It was very easy and took about 10 minutes to make them. I just cut off the top of the wrenches with a hacksaw and the knobs attached with set screws. I put a dab of loctite on the bottom to hold it in the adjustment hole and then relatched the seat. I really like how they came out, and in total they cost less than $10 to make.

I did mine with the t-handles and I got a couple pieces of 1/8" stainless tubing that I cut to 7 " and stuck those back there. That way the wrench turns free of the seat.

Thanks a ton. This wasted so much time before Tech. After a full day of lapping it gets really old pulling out the backseat before heading home. I am ordering right now.

YOU ROCK SIR!!!!!!
