couch pump on SJ

[sflsurfrider]

i have a wear ring from a raider. i want to use it in a SJ.

it doesnt have the threaded holes for the long bolts.

could i just run small bolts in the circled areas?

sorry about the shytti pic.

why dont you helicoil the ring

 

[sflsurfrider]

i could do that. then id have to find some bolts and buy helicoils.

i already have the 8 small nuts and bolts to put this together.

just wondering if this would work. its for a stock 650 SJ so theres not mad power or anything.

 

[waxhead]

i supose you could
it doesnt feel right but i am sure it will work ok

 

[sflsurfrider]

as i recall, thats how the kaw 550s are set up :dunno:

Short bolts... some guys will do anything to lose weight.

The 550's use long bolts also but yes you can use short bolts ,it will work fine.

I use short bolts in my Superjet that they are fine.

I've helicoiled them it fits in the same hole, but i've also run short bolts, either way works just fine
