Does the rear bracket for the Lcon look like the Full Race brackets in the first pic or does it look like the one in the second pic (bottem left of 2nd pic)? I ask because I think the one in the second pic from stealthmodes site might be for an EG. I dont know if it's the same for EF's.

EDIT: here is what my Full Race setup looks like on the LCA. If your Lcon brackets are the same as the FR brackets, then just install it the same way.

you say you dont have them? how do you know those are the ones you need if you dont have them? what I'm getting at is maybe the rear brackets for the EF ang EG Lcon crossmember are different. Looking at my pic which is an EF and the pics on the stealthmode pic (which I think is an EG) the mounting locations are different.

EF's dont look like they have a bolt going through the LCA, unless they intended for you to use the damper fork lower bolt which I dont think is the correct one to use. The only other thing I see that you can use for an EF is the stock radius rod bolt holes, which is where my FR bracket is bolted onto.

I think you should contact Lcon and tell them you need the radius rod brackets for an EF. Check out this pic of the bracket for a DA and notice how it is different from the one that I think might be an EG?

This is probably what your EF bracket will look like. Get with this guy which is somebody from Lcon.

The rear brackets on the L-con kit are different between the EG and EF's. The ones in my pictures are the EG, and the ones for the EF are the more traditional flat bar looking with the two top mounting bolts.


Both of them are available through Louie at L-con

I have the same lcon bars for my ef, you can bolt that u bracket to the shock fork bolt, but you will loose some turning radius, or just pm louie and ask him to purchase the correct billet mounts that he just got in specifically for the ef's.
