TracerDoc Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) Just wondering if any body Installed set of eBay/ amazon levers for tracer. I tried getting a pair description said fits fj09. It was some fxcnc brand. Actually well made for the price. But didn’t fit. I should say it fit well with the perch and all, just the neutral switch on the gt pushed the lever way out over stretching the clutch cable. If any one have a set installed which was direct plug and plug and plz share the link. I never used them shorty levers before and want to try cheaper pair before spending big coins for super brands.

Premium Member sirepair Posted April 23, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted April 23, 2019 I have the MZS shorty levers on my '15 FJ. Think I gave about $35 for the set. Decent quality for the $$. Can't vouch for fit on a GT though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why the tracer having an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyN Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 I put these on mine and only had a very small modification to make to clutch perch. Had to grind a small amount of material off of mount to allow lever to full return to release position. Been on bike for 2 months now and working perfectly. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C5MQKCM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And will me being a mediocre mechanic able to pull it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyN Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 It can be done with a file if you don't have any type of electrical grinder. Picture is from above left. Look down next to hinge pin. Small corner needed to be ground off. While doing work double check that brakes are working without any pressure being put on them while released. Some have reported that other brands have applied pressure to brakes making them drag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harraseeket Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I had same problem as randy m. ordered two different kinds and both needed modification to work to beware. one of them made it so the sensor for cruise control wasn't depressed enough to allow cruise to work. they must not have actual tracers in china yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
