THANKS DON !!! Thanks for clearing that up Dingy

So the BELL I just ordered I can not use it now

You might want to change the link on trike talk to the new link I posted here. this is what started all this LOL. The link is showing the short threaded (T) Anyways, thanks for your help. I think I will be good to go when I get my new locks now and thanks for the great pics. !! . Jeff

I had my whole antenna in the fairing and it worked fine removed the system after the prices went through the roof. Wife still uses it only when we get the $24.99 for 6 months deals

at lest I already have my hole larger

Oh Goodie.. same here As I have the PIGGY Trailer with those two crap plastic latches on it. .so I figure the shorter cam will be perfect for that,one on each side.

The Vendor just sent this note to me.. same place.. Just to let you know, the locks that you bought come with a very long flat cam. Do you wanna keep them or change to the flat cams that I was sending you before? I told him to send with the long ones as I could cut it down if I needed. I also think the the length will be perfect as well. Jeff

Robert and John. send me your paypal addys when you get time. Jeff

Well well well.. I did some research and I think I found what Jim was using ,notice the cam is longer as well as the thread depth. and it is also the flat cam.. at lest these are cheap enough cost I guess. So I ordered a couple of these to try. Boy I have lots of locks now http://www.ebay.com/itm/T-Handle-Cam-Lock-For-Enclosures-Cabinets-Desks-Generators-Boxes-etc-/150999200910?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item232840f48e I can add some here and there to other projects I have . I might even add couple to my Trailer. Jeff EDIT:: Vendor just emailed with the same above link as well. so this is what you need. sorry guys It was the link I got from another thread that was posted. If you want I will buy yours from you as this was my fault posting the wrong link . I also changed the link in the other post I made. The shorter thread does work though. except your not using the bracket and closing it onto the frame/rubber. Jeff

OK' waiting for an email from the vendor today. will let you now if he still has any with the longer thread length. Jeff

Jim, notice your pics and my pics on the thread depth of our locks There about half the length as what we bought. Notice that mine has no threads left when the bolt is tighten down. So I had to bend the cam and only use the lip of the trunk as my catch as the lock will stop anyways at the right spot. If I had the thread length I would have notched the cam and used the latch. I think the Vendor has change the types since you got yours I might email him and ask if he still has the longer thread as well. Jeff

Jim.. well that was my plan to notch the cam.. except the bar kept hitting the trunk as if the end of where the cam bolts on is not long enough.. and hits the trunk rubber , so I had to bend it to make it reach. are you saying you extended it a bit? I will call you today from work later. :-) see your photo # 4 I see that you have the leanth , Mine is a shorter reach . So the I had to bend for the reach othewise it just hits the lip of the trunk/ Jeff

So if r a n d o m n u m b e r g e n e r a t o r has 21 letters in it ,thats how many tickets each person needs right

Love it , thanks

Yeah, Wait till your 59

LOL yeah you will be fine, ya gatta bend the part anyways, I have both angle and flat, I thought I almost was going to have to use the angle type, one slug hammer whack otta do it and YES that seller is super fast, sheesh- no messing around with him. and if it dont work out I will send you a flat if you need it !!

Your welcome and thanks John . I just thought of something , I think I will cut a small strip of thin aluminum and goop it to the underside of the rubber molding where the cam is making contact the molding is pretty strong , but maybe will help for wear over time OH , and go back in an apply some medium strength loc-tit as well to the cam and the large nut.

This will give you a idea of how I did mine. pretty simple and NO DAMN KEY When you remove the old lock there will be a ring mark there and that is where I put the RED mark.. I might have gone over just a tad. I used the round drum sander on my Dremal tool worked perfect. Then removed the inside post for the old lock. And adjust the Cam to make a nice fit. Good luck!

OK, what I did was remove the Hannigan lock stop inside the trunk and bent the cam at a angle and now it closes and locks Going to bend the cam a little more so it not as tight. I think this will work fine. If you guys come up with any other options let me know. I also have a few pictures I can post of how I did mine. Jeff

Took about 10 Min's to install it. but still trying to figure out how Jim Got it to latch, I am almost thinking he cut the rubber in that area to make the latch close? as the shaft/threaded part is shorter then the OEM lock... Will report back Jeff

Go to that Item and go to contact seller.. then he will fix it. trying to get him to add the flats.

No, email him right now and say you want the flat cam on that order. there very fast to respond. and HURRY as they ship super fast. I just did the same thing about an hour ago and email him as well. I ordered two more Jeff
