Wow that looks pretty serious paired with a thumb. Let us know how you like it when you get a chance to use it bud. Donnie

Will do. They email to say they'd have it built by the end of Monday. They aren't letting any grass grow under their feet. Funny thing, I don't even know where they are and their website doesn't say either. Anyone know?

I purchased BX wheel spacers from Bro Tek.

I purchased BX wheel spacers from Bro Tek.

That's surprising since their flat rate shipping is only 40 bucks.
Where in Canada, left or right coast? Why so secretive about physical location I wonder.

I've thought of spacers to gain some added stability but worry about extra leverage on wheel bearings and such. In anything mechanical or any engineering discipline, you soon learn that nothing comes for free or without tradeoffs.

These guys don't mess around, the ripper tooth is already on it's way from New Brunswick Canada. It'll likely take about a week to get here.

The wheel spacers were beautifully machined.

I do not think you will be disappointed with the ripper tooth.

I don't either. Bro-Tek seems like a good place. Can't find too many complaints about their stuff here anyway.

Oh goody, my ripper tooth just arrived and right on schedule too. I gotta go look a that thing now.
