If you are dead set on installing one and not replacing the bushings in your swing arm.....then use one that does not bolt directly to your oil pan. Too much stress on the bolt holes will oblong the holes in your trans case.

If it hasn't happened to Hoist's Cybil then I'm not going to worry about it.   :huepfenjump3:

I have no problem at all with my TrueTrack and happen to LOVE their products!!! Now I'm using the link without the cage on the Baker Plus 1 oil pan! :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:

I did not think that there would be any problem with an oil pan bolted unit......till I had another oil leak and it was comming from the pan. The threads in the trans case were destroyed beyond a heli coil. They needed to be welded up and re tapped.

i am using the True Track and I love it.   No vibration issues at all and it feels like bike is on rails. I won't be without one.

It sounds like the unit wasn't  installed by following directions given by true-track for torque specs on the pan.  If blue lock tight was not used, which lubes the threads, this would cause the threads to pull out.   Harley factory specs for torgue should be applied to the five bolts removed.  By following these directions the trans case threads can not be destroyed nor can an oil leak occur.

Brian, is there anything you can't destroy?  You're worse than Howie!
