BRAND NEW
PART # DK-RL-BTE
Fits 1984-2000 Harley Big Twin Evo Models
The rocker arm shafts have a notch in them that the bolt is supposed to butt up against, locking the rocker arm shafts in place. However, the bolt hole is too large, leaving a gap. This gap allows the shaft to rotate and hit the bolt causing a tick.
Eliminates the gap between the rocker arm shaft and bolt.
The Rocker Lockers also center the rocker plate so that it is always located in the same position eliminating different wear patterns on the rocker arm/valve and a better alignment of the pushrod in the holes.
The Rocker Lockers are tapered so that they lock themselves in and wedge the bolt/shaft in place.
It is recommended to replace the rocker base gaskets. These are the gaskets that goes between the Rocker Cover Inner & the head on each cylinder.
NOTE: Rocker Lockers will not quiet noisy lifters, noisy chains, gears, tensioners or bearings. Rocker lockers keep the shaft from rotating and hitting the Rocker Support Plate bolts.
If you ever need to remove the lockers, just use a punch and tap them out, they are usually reusable.
