i made a torque strap and all, but the chain tugs on the nut, and its stripping the bolt. what bolt and nut combos do yall use? and can i see sum pics of yalls set up? i have a 95 vulcan.
I don't understand. Are you implying that the vulcan is weak ??Originally posted by Twilight@Dec 16 2003, 11:19 PM
A Vulcan? All ya need is some fishing line or perhaps a speaker wire.
j/k lol![]()
how is your setup though? Bolting it down usually won't work too well, use S-hooks to connect the chain around to itself.
Um, a chain costs maybe $5. Stronger motor mounts will cost a lot more, and that's if they're even made. Point goes to the chain. 1-0Originally posted by Alex_Perry@Dec 17 2003, 12:45 AM
Why not get stronger motor mounts? I've never looked for them, so I don't know if there are even any made for the vulcan. There needs to be some movement.
Properly applied a chain will do none of that.A mount is not going to rust shut on you, rub up and down your manifolds, take a chance on hitting an o2 sensor, strip so that you can't remove it when you go to sell the car, or look as _cobbled_.[/b]
Yeah, and properly applied, a shear fan will not find it's way into a non-pressurized turbo system.Originally posted by SHOZ123@Dec 19 2003, 02:51 AM

I myself would like to see a pic.Originally posted by Kermit@Jan 2 2004, 11:18 PM
SHOZ123 is that a picture shot straight down from under the hood? Did you go around the bolts on the manifold? ( do you have a picture that is about 3" farther up) So I can see where it loops around and what it comes in contact with. Thanks
