• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Frame sliders for TE 630 with motard wheels

I have a 2011 TE 630 that I have swapped out the dirt wheels for warp 9 wheels. I want to add frame sliders. I see some for the SM 630 on ebay but I am not sure if they would fit the TE. I am mostly concerned with the front axle width. Does anyone know if they are the same?

I know that the SME axle sliders won't fit on the front of a TE without some small modification to a spacer. I tweaked one to fit for a member here on the lathe. The rear should fit no problem.

Which set are you looking at?

BTW, are you actually looking for frame sliders too, or just axle sliders?

Axle sliders, handguards and a Hyde skidplate have saved all the expensive bits on my SMS a couple times.

The rears are the same, but the fronts aren't quite identical. Also, if you buy the SM front sliders, they'll have to be tweaked to fit a TE axle.

What kind of modification? I bought my set of SME axle sliders when I had my SM but now I have a TE and the front isn't long enough to reach across. Is it possible to get a longer bolt? Or did you mill down the red spacer on the slider?
 
You can mill/turn down the spacer on the right side until the delrin piece is touching the fork end, then you will have enough threads and the sliders will be centered up left to right. If you've got someone with a lathe, they can turn it with a step to keep it in place, (or start a new spacer from scratch, it's about the same amount of work).
