Default Re: Collecter Tethers?

Can't the bolts on his extensions loosen and fall off like on the primary
tube tabs?

Hope you don't need the 36" tethers instead of the 10", 15" or 20" ones.
They are $50.00 more for an extra 32" of stainless 1/8" cable that sells in bulk for less than .50 cents a foot.
surprisingly the 10", 15" and 20" all cost the same

Yes they can, however, per NHRA we have them jam nutted so that happening is not probable. They are bolted to a street style three bolt flange. My concern is finding a company that makes the rings in which the tethers attach too in a large enough diameter to go around the three inch header and extension. I could make something work, but NHRA is mandating the use of a particular brand that they have approved, thus, making this more problematic.
