  4. You need it to be a different size or spring mounts or??? I don't understand the question.

    As for bullet proofing just scour the articles and threads on them and lay into it yourself. you got to grow up sometime.

    Does anyone have contact info on Johnnie Stooksbury? I know a guy in FL who is wanting to sell a Columbia rear end, says the only calls he gets are from California, would prefer to sell it in the southeast to cut down on shipping hassles. K6

    I'd like to know if there's anybody in the Northeast. TN & CA are a bit of a haul. I'd like to run one at some point.

    I want to convert my 46-48 to a 1940 Columbia. 46-48 is too wide. I already have a 40 rear to do the conversion. I can do the bulletproofing but the conversion I leave to the experts

    Johnnie Stooksbury can be reached at Smokey Mountain Harley Davidson in Maryville Tn. 865 977 1869, he works there. Yes I'm sure it's the guy, I know him, not sure if he still does rear ends though.
