I have about 500 miles on it at this point.



If I was to do it over I would not go this route. When issues arise Scott is pretty much worthless as far as support. Looking back I wish I would have gone with an Industrial Chassis Crossmember or a full Fatman set up. Live and learn I guess.
I had those very same issues on the one we did and thought the same thing but when it was lined up correctly it was like night and day. No more pushing around tight corners and the radius was good.

Hi guys! I’m a newbie here, my name is Kit. I have been following both of your builds! I am installing a 3 turn gear in a Danforth Crossmember per the information I’ve gathered with you both. Any help or advice I could get I would greatly appreciate!
