now that sounds like a winner right there! you wouldn't happen to remember what the diameter is down there would you? anyway, regardless, I'm going to have to wait until I get home... no tools down here.

btw, how's the leg doing man?

Can't remember the exact diameter, I just bought several sizes (like $.10 ea) from 3/4" to 1.5". Use the rubber version, it's thinner than the nylon.

Leg is getting better, but still no walking for 6 weeks.

I'll have to do that if my KB vibrates again. So far so good though.


Update: I have not noticed any additional gear whine/vibrations while cruising at highway speeds.
