I know this is an old thread, but here's the overall results of my fix: There is zero play between the gear and the basket, so the sealant worked perfectly. I know this because I had to take the clutch off this weekend because (here's the bad news) the heads of the bolts rubbed against the shift...

^oh boy a dt240? *whipes drool from face* *heavy breathing*

I had the same problem. Our solution was to build a second gate next to the first one so I could open both gates and ride the blaster through. I dont know if you have enough room for that or the motivation to do it right with posts and cement and all that jazz.

98blaster, thanks for sharing, that's just what I wanted to hear.

tbrooks, I know just were you mean. I was thinking about doing that. First I'll see what FMF has to say about it.

Hahaha funny thing is I really did order it on a friday lol

Awk, I know I could fab up some way of getting it to work, I just find it interesting that fmf would send me a flange with no loop when the fmf pipe has a loop on it from the factory. Thoughts?

Ok so I ordered a new exhaust flange from fmf, and when I got it I saw that it had no loop for a spring to attach. The flange that's on my blaster right now does in fact have a loop for the spring, as it should. Anybody have a clue as to why this flange from fmf doesnt have a loop on it?? Thanks...

That would be awesome, but one's for a thumper

herpderp, I know just what you mean. There's like a billion of those types of tachs for sale. I've come to the conclusion that they don't make a gauge version, just a digital one. Oh, well, I guess I'll have to live with it. :(

Kinda reviving this thread, but do they make inductive tachometers that are a gauge? And not a digital readout? I just think it'd be cooler if it were an actual gauge.

Both, but the second one is my favorite haha

Good point, Larry. Seth, when was the last time you checked your muffler packing? You can find that stuff much cheaper than a silencer.

I agree with tfaith08; if you're going to be doing a rebuild, go all the way and replace all the seals. That's what I did with mine. And that's just a suggestion, I'm not in the business of telling people what to do; you're free to think for yourself. PS- tfaith08, you earn my vote for the...

I looked up the part numbers for a 2002 tie rod and a 2004 tie rod and they are the same part number. So naturally they're the same length.
