Lucky NW's

[proudlefty]

Hey, I know how many lame bar threads there r rite now but honestly, I'm gonna buy some lucky NW's and I have a question. It says on there that if ur gonna use a stock pro fork then you need a shim. do I really need a shim? That means that the fork is too small or something rite? Should I get them and get a district shim or just buy some other bars?

It is like that with most one piece bars, it is just the wall on the bars is not that thick(not saying they are weak, most bars are like that) so a shim is needed in most cases for the clamp to be of any use.
The easy way of doing this is A:cans, fold them into layers and put them under the clamp but cut after you have put them on or B:waste money on a shim which you could cut out of thin sheet metal.

soda can shims work plenty good. thats what im using on my scs and it works perfectly

District clamp is for bigger bars like French ID's and s5 buffs.

Ok. So so soda shims are easy to make. You just cut a near circle out of a soda can? If it is easy I think I will buy them.

making the shims is all trial and error. you just gotta cut some pieces out and cut them to fit. its very easy, trust me. you'll figure it out pretty quickly
