| Looking for some clamps!
So I'm working on a steering setup. Worked pretty good but my clamp I'm using just won't hold tight. It's a modified brake line frame clamp that I had. Seemed like a great idea initially but I just can't get it to stay put. So I'm looking for a supplier or manufacturer that makes clamps in assorted sizes or ideas on how to make this setup work. I'm waiting for some longer links and ends so worse case scenario I can bolt it on, just not sure How well that work. Here's my setup so far. Need something simi,AR or just a longer link to make it out to the spindle. Ideas? Sent from my SM-T817V using Tapatalk |

Very interesting. I can't provide you with an alternatives but have you considered filing/sanding on the flat sections where the two halves mate? This would help increase the clamping force on the link and may be enough to keep it from slipping. Loctite may also be some help between the two parts.

Problem solved for now, and yes, I tried shaving, spacing with shims, and loctite. Nothing would hold. Scabbed together this rod from left over parts. Seems to work well. Sent from my SM-T817V using Tapatalk |

Yeah. That's what I was looking for. The setup I did I think works fine for now. Need to run it and see how well the steering works. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

Tried to remember where I saw these, took almost two days but found them again. Looking to buy some myself soon and I like their OCP diff covers and a few other items. Level-3 Link Mount V1 Level-3 Link Mount V2 Level-3 Shock Link Mount Leve-3 home page |
