here's what i was trying to explain and couldn't...the perch that the bearing mounts to,used hang down about 2 inches lower than it is now.he welded in a flat plate and bolted bearing to it.works great for 73-87.no shudder at launch and cruise at 80 on interstate no vibration at all,when bearing goes,i'll swap to a single. jlaird,i also think your idea will work.your doing the same thing only different. and if it doesn't.. your not out much,then do a single.
