Go to their web site ( www.borgenson.com) and look it up. Thanks... |
i tried borgensson(link posted) just out of curiosity, and all it is is bunch of re-routes to other sites that sell ISS-s.
i fooled with removed shaft for a while, just trying to figure out how it can possibly clunk. as it's plastic (!!) splines on metal. so, wiggling it sidewise produced no cluncking at all. the only time it'd clunck was when the shaft would completely fold/shorten. then metal hits on metal with loud clunck.
so i developed a feeling that when the front end saggs enough, ISS shortens to the point that metal approximates metal. slam on the brakes or hit a pothole - bang!
