stupidlong Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I just got my first pair of td-1's looking for some info on bumpers and cants I'm guessing that there are a few different sizes of bumpers? I got a 0 degree and a 3 degree cant. both foot beds have the same bumpers on them a large one and a small one. the one on the 3 degree cant seems to sit correctly as every thing touches nicely. the one with 0 degree cant seems to sit high on the side with the large bumper. so I am guessing that with a 0 degree cant you need 2 small bumpers? than what do you do withg the 6 degree cants? a different bumper set or 2 large bumpers or an xtra large st of bumpers? help me an old time rider bet a newbe hardbooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Yes, the different cant disks for the TD1 required different bumpers. Check out the links below for help getting started in Alpine. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladia Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I put fender washer between base of TD1 and bumpers. Usually one is enough take care about gap, but I also have some thicker washers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupidlong Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 the gap on the 0 degree is between the footbed and the cant and what combo do you use for the 6 degree cant but the washer idea is great for the 3 degree, on a closer inspection the small bumper dosn't touch the deck ok all figured ouy now I now know that a bumper for a 0 degree cant has 0 dots on it a bumper for a 3 degree cant has 3 dots on it a bumper for a 6 degree cant has 6 dots on it making it easyer to match bumpers to cants my problem was I had one 3 degree cant with 3 degree bumpers and one 0 degree cant with 3 degree bumpers causing the foot bed to not sit flat on the 0 degree cant now I just gotta get 2 - td1 - 0 degree purple bumpers got any on hand?

Jack M Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Yellow = Soft Purple = Medium Red = Hard Fixed. The color codes are the same for the TD2 and TD3 e-rings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
