Wet bolt kit at Tweety's

They are $148.00 with free shipping; no tax.
Just FYI

Mor-ryde $168.00 plus shipping, tax, I don't know about.

When we bought our wet boltb kit from Dexter we ended up buying the extra parts we needed from Mor-ryde.
We thougt we paid less , but ended up paying more.

I have a Mor-ryde part number, so I assume the kit is Mor-ryde. Would the Dexter kit be the same number?
LRE12-001 was the number

http://tweetys.com/search.aspx?find=LRE12-001

It looks like it is short the shear brackets 'C'
I would have thought it would be the same, I will email them and have them check
Thanks for the heads up.

Ozz,
That's the kit you need. Easy to install once you get the puppy up on stands. Did one side at a time per recommendations of the MOC experts. I did use the dremel to sand the spring eyes good and also put the bronze bushing in the freezer overnite. They slipped in just fine without needing to be pressed in. Noted it looks like they took the small picture from the MOR/ryde site that doesn't show all the parts.

Thanks Mike, I saw that someone used a bearing pusher, I wouldn't need that would I?
Thanks.

Can`t remember the part #, we bought them from Dexter at the Goshen Rally in 2009.
Dexter was doing the installation and John Kohl noticed the difference, we stopped the insallation
and went and bought the additonal parts from Mor-ryde. Maybe John will be coming along and give you more information.

The Tweetys LRE12-001 picture did not show the addditional part we puchased from Mor-ryde

Ozz,
You will need the bearing pusher to install the bolts the last little bit. They have a serrated collar OR you can just beat them in (NOT).

Ozz I used a deep well socket put over the thread side and a c-clamp to push it through the hole. I also pushed them through the opposite side so it could be greased easier. A four pound hammer is also a handy tool.

Although about 3 years ago, here's a photo helper.

Some believe it's best to orientate the bolt's grease holes to the side. After pressing the serrated bolts into the shackle, test fit the other shackle arm over the bolts as it's easier to tweek it if needed on the bench as compared to being under your fiver.
