Waar sal julle aanbeveel gaan kry ek vir my 'n stel greasable shackles vir die bladvere?

Op die oomblik kan ek dink aan Mikem.
Die kalant by Megaworld het my vertel dat jy nie OME shackles kan gebruik as jy nie OME Leafsprings insit nie.

Ek glo nie dis waar nie, maar kry in elk geval die Mikem stel. Ek glo nie dat daar te veel onderskeid tussen hulle is nie en daar is baie ouens wat die plaaslike Mikem stelle gebruik sonder enige probleme. :wink:

Andy, ek twyfel self oor daardie stelling van hom.

Ek het ook verneem ek kan by East Rand Spring Works die shackles direk by die vervaardigers aankoop. Dan kan ek dalk weer Vesconite bushes insit.

I'm using Mikem's extended shackles with my OME blades... no problem... so I'm 100% you can do the opposite... but OME shackles will cost a fortune and offer you nothing better than the greasable one from Mikem!

The Mikem ones work 100%!
