68 t-bars

["BOBSMOPAR" <bobsmopar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All.
I just got back from the garage and this is what I found out tonight.
I did have the bars on the right way but the cams were not down against the
adjusting bolts.
On the left side on 1 end on the bar it has 267 and on the other end it has
511.
On the other side it 367 on 1 end and 510 on the other end.
After I moved the cams down against the bolts and replaced the bars the
isolator went right on this is the first time I did not have to fight it to
get back in place.
I think I might have the problem solved but wont know until I get the seats
back in when they are redone .
Now if I could only find the right color red for them Bob is searching is
books for the right red but no luck yet.
When I get it out on the road I will let you all know if the problem is
fixed.
Thanks to all who helped me on this.
The warm weather is driving me nuts I want to go for I ride with the top
down but we are not going to hurry we are going to do it right.
Bob
68 Imperial
