anyone own a benen carbing bar and tein ra's / re's ?

I recently switch my suspension from ha's to ra's , now the benen bar will not fit because the 14mm stud on the pillow mount is to tall.

three options ...

1. cut the stud down ( hopefully the threads wont be damaged ).
2. remove the stud with a shorter one.
3. sell the bar and forget about it~

any other idea's?

 

For a second there, I was wondering when BENEN starting making the "carbing bar". haha. My mistake.

Anyway, I would try and replace it with a shorter stud. If you cut it you might ruin the structural integrity of the stud for future uses IMO.

Maybe this pic will help ? :

( BTW, I only logged on my sn for you reza , this sn only gives to good people and good threads )

hahaa thanks man~!

yeah , I was trying to avoid taking the struts out...
argh~

 

cuttin it isnt a bad idea.....u just need a steady hand and a sharp wheel

goodluck

but less hassle would be just to replace em with shorter ones.....would be better in the long run

 

think I should call tein for the studs or could I find them at a local hardware store?
