Rick, I would also take one if there is one left over for me to purchase. Just let me know if there is and where and how to send you the money. Thanks. Krazykevman	krazykevman OFFLINE Junior Max Posts: 60 Thank you received: 5

I took the stock spring retainer to a local machine shop and had it copied with twice the depth. My 2 springs nest in place perfectly and cannot slip. Like it was made for it now.

Rick.....I've seen your posts on this before. That's a great solution, you really should have 50 of those made up and kit them up with new bolts, a spring and a gasket. Or just the retainer. You will sell them all. IMO

See Rick....told you so.

Lot's of interest in this part!

You're going to be known as Double D Rick!!

Thanks for the effort!!

I like it and I think it was worth it. I don't think that I had the wow factor as other members who did the mod with less miles. My plates were worn more than most. But there was a noticeable difference in pull. Plus it's a cheap mod.. Around $70.00 for me to include spring, gasket and bolts. Replace the bolts. They only cost six bucks for all six bolts. There's no feeling like torqueing down the 5th bolt and seeing the heads of the previously four torqued bolts pop off.
