Default Question

Question...... The fury has a 38 degree rake from factory. So with your new trees what is the new rake degree angle?

Here is the low down I got from Chris, the new tree's are 8° out from our Fury stock tree's and the rake is at a 46° angle now... I am going to check on this when I get home. I could have misunderstood him as well as somebody was talking to me at work at the same time.

Also, he said that his mechanical guy's did a digital readout on the Fury's tree's before they replaced them. Supposedly, the Fury's stock tree's are supposed to be @ 6° out and Low and Mean measured them at 5° (so it would actually be 37°?, but that too would change theirs to a 45° final rake)...? Don't know if anybody want's to help me out in getting another measurement on stock tree's or not, but it would be helpful... I'll try to do something with the L&M measurements tonight if I get a chance... going to buy some camping gear and food tonight.

40 degrees rake. 32 in the head, 8 in L&M tree= 40. They replace the 6 degree stock tree, with their 8, a gain of 2. The other stretch effect comes from the extenders, which affects the trail number and extended look.
Someone posted in the beginning that it would add another 8 degrees, which was incorrect. Also incorrect was L&Ms machinist, stock is 6 degrees, not 5.

Okay, I challenge you mental as you are just reading numbers off of fact sheet and I am hearing straight from. The horse's mouth... I would like you to take a stock fury and actually do this test on it for the 6 degree rake vs. 5 degree rake, I bet that you will find it to actually be 5 degrees ... if. I am wrong, I will PayPal you 100$ for your time... if I am wrong, you have to do the same for me.... the other I will investigate further tomorrow on my day off...
