2 piece clutch covers
« on: September 12, 2014, 11:31:08 AM »
I finally got a quote to make the adapter rings for the 2 piece clutch covers without the holes in them.
So, you would have to drill and tap your own holes.
Not a big deal but still a pain.
They would be water jetted from 1/4" 6061 Aluminum plate.
They will make me one for me to do a test fit on.
Once I verify it they will make the other 9.
I'd like to hear from Roost first before I commit to getting them made.
So stay tuned...

Roost just got back to me and we should have some soon.
So I will wait before doing anything else.
He should know something in a few weeks.
You gotta admit, these look sexy  :mrgreen:

Now available for sale!
I only have a few that aren't spoken for so get em quick!
I'll have another batch soon.
This current batch are 3/16" thick and have the holes tapped.
The new batch will be 1/4" thick but will not have the holes tapped.
If you are in Canada, please order them from Roost.
Thanks!

I have some 1/4" adapters that just arrived.
If you see them on eBay, DO NOT buy them there...

both those pics are funny...the only thing they're missing is an open source of gasoline...and a cigarette dangling from their mouths for the icing on the cake. :lol:
