Daledo i saw your spacers on ebay. I'm the leading bidder on them now. If you wanted to end that early, can you do that, I'd just buy them from you for a decent price.

You knowDan, I would but I dont know Ebay's policy on ending auction early , also I dont know what a fair price would be for them. There are 5 watchers on it. It would be a safer transaction through ebay but I also understand the need for you to get them quicker . Yes they were very solid spacers and Im sure highlifters are too. They kept the fenders from rubbing trees as the tires stuck out about and inch more and felt like they gripped the outsides of ruts from being a little wider.

Lets let the bidding process run it's course. I'm not in that much of a hurry. I just ordered the tires so I've got plenty of time before the snow hits. I think your right about the tires sticking out and protecting the fenders. A little more width won't be bad either.

On a side note.....I do have an extra set of bighorns and SS112's for sale for cheap if anybody is looking.

Sorry for the shameless plug

Unless you ride in areas where they have width limitations with big posts to keep out UTVs and Jeeps. We've got them in Maine. It would be a tight fit.

Couldn't one add some rubber flaps (rivets) to existing fenders to keep mud out of your face? One thing I've noticed about the XPs is that the stock situation works extremely well. Guys I ride with are sometimes covered and I'll only have a bit of mud on my back or shoulder, riding through the same stuff at roughly the same speed. XPs have fantastic fender design.

Any thoughts on how one would go about bending that sway bar without removing the entire assy? Looking at it, it appears that maybe a 1/2in to 1inch of bend would be sufficient on each end to accomodate a larger width tire.
