Tools Needed for SpyderPop's Mods

[qasamm]

I just finished installing my SpyderPops "missing stuff" and wanted to give a heads up on a few tools you'll need beyond the standard stuff. The Air Management System requires a rivet gun and something to cut a square out of the bottom plate (plastic). I used a cheap $10 rivet gun from Home Depot and made the hole with a Dremel cutting wheel. I am sure you can make the cut another way but be aware of the need.

All things considered the install went pretty good. I am a bit nervous about the belt guard- wondering if it could warp, break or vibrate its way into the belts path causing a problem. It seems secure but...

I also added a Triple Play, wiring to power my iPhone and changed to a high flow filter while I had the Spyder stripped down. I didn't get to setting up my JuiceBox or putting my anti-vibration bars back- I need to cut a few inches off the insert rods because of the new Easy Riders.

Not enough time!

Can you help with my question regarding the air mgt. system?

The MBG is angled in such a way that direction wise it doesn't catch neither the spinning of the tire or the traveling of the belt. It might rub a little here or there but unless the glue comes loose, its not in the way of anything. Really quiet nicely designed IMO. I got lucky and managed to fit the guard perfectly between the belt and tire.

Another thing is to power up the battery for your drill. :gaah:
