    Long/Short Arm /Advantages/Disadvantages

    My 2000 tb135 has the longer of the 2 options. Would never want a shorter arm. Keep in mind I don't have a zero swing counter weight.

    If you remove that plug, you can stick a socket and extension to tighten the steering clutch bolts. Pay attention to seals next to clutch, one ruined my brand new brake bands and i had to take the clutch /brake all apart again.
