    Default NoBoot (Ron P) Has the solution!

    His version of the cam is 1,000% sturdier than the OEM. Ends up costing less. The shop installed it for me in a couple of hours! Get one NOW!

    I currently don't have any possible for 3 or 4 weeks.

    Maybe one of the guys on here can send (lend) you theirs that they are holding in their tool kit and you can replace it once I have them available.

    Just a thought, so if anyone can help

    Just a reminder from the "Do's & Do Not's":

    Check your windshield brackets often:
    They have been known to fail occasionally. The consensus is if you run with your shield "full-down" most of the time, it will cause undue stress on the middle bracket, which raises and lowers the shield. Move the shield up slightly off the metal-stop to avoid the potential damage. Keep in mind you cannot replace just the bracket. The entire lift-mechanism has to be replaced to the tune of around $600.
