    Mine came with the Kand actually the guy who did my cage work made some new ones for me because he did not like the original ones. If you know who made your K I'd question them.

    I made mine out of aluminum. I think I have a print I'll post ( might not be till monday night)

    Mine where made from 1.75" aluminum rod. they are 2" long, there turned down to 1.305 dia for a length of 1.800. leaving .200 @ 1.75dia. then a .750" hole was offset bored .500" from center.

    I couldn't find any one that made out of aluminum so that is why I made my own

    there's a pic

    If those are the urethane ones, stay away from them. I know very few people who have gotten them to actually work worth a damn.



    The ones that were made for my car look a lot like Brandonf's
