Anyone on here try the synergyoffroad idler kit to convert to 1 ton idler?

 

There's been a couple people, yes.


I built my own.

 

How hard was that?

 

wasn't too bad, pics are in my build thread

 

Any way you can throw a link up? Kinda doing everything through my phone makes it a pain

 

link is in my signature

 

I just picked up the arm and bracket for the 1 ton arm. There is not a shortage of pictures but what there is none of are dimensions. When I get to mine I was going to give some basic dimensions. At least enough to design one from.

 

Good luck with the lawsuit.....


The guy that designed and builds them said he's ok if people put the work in themselves to come up with their own design, he's not ok with people taking his designs and posting all the information on them all over the internet.


If you can't figure out how to get the dimensions you need to build one on your own, you probably aren't smart enough to build it and should buy one anyway.

 

I don't plan on copying anything. Dimensions would be nice so I don't have to lay in the snow to get this built before spring.

IMO there are only 3 dimensions that matter.
1. The distance out from the frame to the center of the mount.
2. The distance from either the top or bottom holes in the frame to the center of the mount.
3. The angle of the mount in relation to the mounting holes of the frame. These are points that do not change.

The time consuming part is finding out what they are without completely screwing something up. I'll let you know what I come up with.
