New guy working on setting up a car, I have done the alignment about 3/8 tow-in, and 1/2 inch left lean loaded, living here in the great state of Kentucky, I encounter a lot of road surface changes, I am interested in putting on an adjustable lean set up, right now it is good for most of our cruising around here, but we hit this road last weekend and it was hang on the bars to keep it on the road... Would like to be able to adjust on the go, we are really enjoying our sidecar, wife wasn't sure when I started out about her getting in it, lol but now she really likes it, says she can see better than being behind my big head... Can some one give me a part # on the duff norton screw setup , length and load rating?? Thanks Bill

I do not know about the Norton unit, The unit we use is a reciruclation ball type, 4 inch stroke rated at 1500lbs and rated for being out in the weather. We have found lower quality units not to hold up well and also to draw a lot of current.
You have not said what your bike and sidecar are however 3/8 inch toe if it is messured over the wheel base of the bike is a lot less then most people are running.
What bike and sidecar do you have?

I have a home built car with a swing arm and coil over shock, it is mounted on a 1200 Goldwing to see how it handled and if the wife was going to like it, plan on setting it up on my Valkyrie.

We offer mounts for the Valkyrie as well as triple tree's to lower the steering effort.
