.....and which would you pick, for an unladen TP rack.....or loaded up?
I think the Ultra Brace is about as good as it's gonna get.

I agree! :2vrolijk_21: It's like Jerry said, one of the best addons I installed on my yellow jacket!

Got a new rivet gun with a 5/32" head for x-mas...now just to source the rivets in less than multiples of 500!

Might be able to sell 8 or 16 of 'em here.  The logistics might be a b!tch, though!

Go to the Ace Hardware website and search on the PN given in the instructions.  You don't have to buy 500.

I always sweated the retractable tether - looks so flimsy.  So after reading this post, I ordered & received it yesterday.  Aside from arthritic fingers handling teeny tiny lock washers and screws, it was pretty easy and took about 1.5 hours.  I left the retractable tether in place to have a backup to the brace.

Helped a bud install tour pak hinges and an ultra brace on his ruse yesterday.  Great way to start the new year.   :2vrolijk_21:

After reading this (again), I thought it would be a good time to get one of these before something happens to mine.  I have the tether also.   Looks great,,  can't wait to get the drill ready.  :'(

I will admit it's a bit pricey...but it works great.

I don't like that you have to drill holes in the TP to install this. Not sure why, just don't like the idea.
