Post #3 The syncho rings/selectors will leave bronze deposits in the oil from heavy wear if you're not using the correct oil. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments. Half cages right up to complete custom spaceframes - MSA/FIA spec, CDS, ROPT, T45, etc - PM me Email me! Custom-made polybushes available - need an odd size or fitment? - anything from batch work to one-off pieces.
