Re: CCLARK'S SMALL CHROME AIR CLEANERS

Why can't people try to stick to answering the original question. In this instance a better way of mounting the Clark air filters!

Re: Tab on LM sun visor bushing

Don't understand how you cut the bushing.Does it matter if it didn't work? Do you. Think it was just making the slot deeper on the clamp that did the trick? Thank you, Duke

Re: Tab on LM sun visor bushing

Thank you but it does have a ridge on the back that fits into a groove that keeps it from rotating. The tab just seems to get in the way of completely closing the clamp. The visor tight but will sag a bit over night. Tried to tighten it a bit more this morning. Will report back.

Tab on LM sun visor bushing

What is the purpose of the little tab on LM sun visor bushing? It seems to prevent the visor clamp from completely closing. I ended up cutting it off to make the visor reasonably tight. Did I do wrong? Opinions please. Thank you Duke
