Poll : Rupes LHR 15E Washer or no Washer
sscully:
OK, I fell for the marketing material again, and ordered one of these.
The question I have of those who own them, Washer mod or No Washer Mod ?
I keep looking at it, and wonder if it is a good idea, long term for the backing plate.,
- It is making the mating between the head and backing plate shallower than factory, I wonder if this can oblong the double D cut away that the backing plate uses.
I will find out tomorrow if my idea will work, but I keep thinking if the idea is to distance the backing plate from the spin control, why not cut down the spin control shroud ?
- Leaves the pad mounting the same depth, not changing the stability factory there.

Wish I could help, but I have no idea what you're talking about.

I've had the Rupes 21 since it was first introduced and have also have had the washer mod since day one. I've had no problems and I use the Rupes every single day, it has been a workhorse.

So the double d cut out has not egg or oblonged on you ?
That is the only concern I have, from the backing plate not sitting on 100% stud post washer mod
