dalez 137 #1 Posted July 12, 2023 Just swapped out my 416 regular steering for a 520 with gear reduction. Did not expect this but I like it since I have a higher sliding seat. Pictures will show what I am referring to and maybe I did something wrong but I don't think so. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpinnc 12,013 #2 Posted July 12, 2023 Taller fan gear. I'd use it just like it is. Maybe find a piece of gray PVC that covers the whole length, Split it and glue to the existing plastic cover. Black plastic water pipe or rubber air hose would work too. Nobody would know the difference. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dalez 137 #4 Posted July 13, 2023 I'll dress the bare pipe up with something. Not about to cut it down that's for sure. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,657 #5 Posted July 13, 2023 You can see I used 2" ABS and clamped it in place wirg a hose clamp. My friend with the lathe was sick, or I would have had him to turn some wood spacer to center it. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
