Hey guys, I'm looking into a Celebrity R&P for my 57. I have done a search looking for info on what exactly needs to be done to the stock rack. ie Shortened and re-threaded.

Does anyone have any other information on the specifics of the modification. How short do the rods get cut? How far are they re-threaded, Is one side a reverse thread? I have or can get all of the stock pieces like the sleeves and replacement ends.

I can get a stock rack A LOT cheaper than buying a kit.

Thanks,
Gil

Yeah, Speedway has the set up for about 800 and Oldedays has one for just over 500. Not bad really. Several guys have mocked up their own or have done some kind of copying of the kits on the market... I'm curious about the mods that re necessary to the rack.

I'm sure someone will post with there experience , when I was looking it seems a rebuilt celebrity rack was over 200 with a core . :bowtier:

On average they seem to be about $125 bucks. Most retail places want close to 300 for just the rack.
