A must, to
straighten that bent or waffled 9 gauge thick sheet metal crossmember before
"TRUE-TRACK"can be installed!
"TRUE-TRACK" frame bracket attaches to the rear bottom crossmember with two
PUCKS that extend into the main bracket through the two large mounting holes
in the crossmember. The center distance between holes is critical, if the
crossmember has an arc or is bent greater than
1/4 " it must be pulled down so it is flat. Typically it can be bent if a
JACK has been used to lift the bike or if you hit a speed bump, curbs or off
roading! So, check it with a straight edge! DO NOT PRY ON THE OIL PAN, IT IS
BRITTLE AND YOU WILL CRACK IT!
This area is bent, sometimes from the shipping NOTE the puck is in crooked,
a sure sign the crossmember needs flattening. pallet.
NOTE, the puckis straight.
Notice the bent Crossmember! In most cases it is bent even
if NEW, shops use it to jack up the 750 lb Dresser as well. It must be
straightened before installation of the DOG BONE crossmember bracket.

bracket ? FOR REGIDITY and load dispersion! It connects the left and right
frame tubes. FOR REGIDITY !
- NO, welding of brackets to castings (??? Enginering,
101 a NO NO).
- NO, long extension brackets to flex and bend.
- NO, exchanges of original brackets required !
- YES, you can still use your jack to lift your
motorcycle. The frame bracket is the perfect platform for the jack point.
- NO, the ground clearance is not reduced because the
frame bracket sits inside of the 1/2" thick crossmember.
- NO, the lean angle is not reduced. The frame bracket
edges are angled. The floor boards contact the ground first.
