High steer kit from 'you know who'

Post by donkeychomp » Wed Apr 01, 2015 6:56 pm

Went to put this on the other day and I'm convinced bits are missing. Stoor is being his usual arsey self and is as much help as a Bavarian unicyclists jockstrap. Has anyone got a pic of a kit fitted?

Don't these kits mount on and replace the top king
pin? I'd assume that the kit would have 8 new bolts?
Or do they pick up on the caliper bolts like the merc arms?

Callipers bolts and existing TRE hole I think Andy.

The gold bolts are to replace the calliper mount bolts, silver ones to bolt through where the TRE used to sit.

So there should be 6 bolts, two high steer arms, a drag link and tie rod and 4 rod ends.

Think the ones on his site are the old design that he hasn't produced for a very long time, just does the ones like mike's now.

I'm missing locking nuts for the tie-rod ends from my kit, luckily mines sat waiting for me to finish the axles!
