Yep, I just converted mine this week. Works great. Way better feeling than the j arm.
I mangled the little roll pin....not sure how to get it out without messing it up. A drop of oil finally helped get it out...but the top was all pinched to hell. |

Just did the mod last night, mangled the roll pin a bit but works like a charm.

I remember in the old thread someone mentioned filling the roll pin with the shank of a drill bit when they removed it. I did not have a drill bit that fit the ID of the roll pin very well but the drill bit that I used looks like it saved the pin enough to reuse it. I plan to just clean the edge a bit and stab the ugly end back in the hole. If I had a better fitting filler I bet it would have saved it even more.

By the time I'm done converting I should be $90 in the hole instead of $329 plus shipping. |
