steeering gator/steering stop/heat wrap/front bottom ball jo

[jdearden]

ok had my split steering gator off today to find the replacement i have is the wrong one. i also found the the steering stop was in 2 places which will explain why my wheels rub really badly one way. i have the exhuast all off at the moment and am going to heat wrap it. does anybody have any tricks on how to do this as it keeps going loose before i have a chance to tie it down.
so what i need is to no where to get a steering gator, a steering stop, and tricks on heat wrapping. also need to know how to get the bottom ball joint off the front does it just press out.
cheers again.

Have you soaked the wrap in a Bucket of water like the instructions say?

and overwrap the previous turn by 50%,easier if you use 2 inch wide on the long runs.

There was not any instructions. I done one bit but wet it next time may make it easier.
