| You do know that Crane went out of business awhile ago? The people who bought most of the company have been starting to make more parts, but they still dont make everything they used to. |

Mostly dealers for bike parts, but a few small speedshops in the mix.
Also, Baxters sells Crane stuff, might try their warehouse on 9th by the freeway. |

| Makes sense since Crane is owned by a company that makes harley parts now. |

| Just putting a Harley Davidson sticker on your truck can make you 75% more likely to be found stranded on the side of the road. Imagine what happens if you use their parts. |

I used to go to Promax. They are such a rip off! How much you pay for those nuts? _________________ '86 Trans Am - 5.0L TPI - LT1 cam - 700R4 - WS6

I still have a couple bottles of their cam break in lube. Older stuff with the right ZDDP levels for flat tappet cams. |
