I have LFP Idlers ... probably made by metco but they are just ths single bearing ones. They have out lasted 2 sets of Billetflow ones on my buddies cobra. and when cleaned up still look brand new. Billetflow ones are nice as well but you HAVE to buy the hard coated or the belt will grove the pullies over time

+1 I Have Silver Lines All Over My Belt From Mine :shrug: Definitely Get The Hard Coated BF's

YES, the hard coat idlers are the best for longevity, which is why we make them, but people(customers) still want/wanted Clear, Blue and Red. I simply filled a niche.

The customers wanted colors and some here would like to throw me under the bus for giving them what they wanted. :dw:

"The customer is always right"
"Damned if you do, damned if you don't"
:shrug:

BTW: Screws are better then cir-clips :p

P.S. I may have found a new process that will give us very nice looking SonicBlue and RedFire Hard Coat:rockon:

P.S.S. Clears can still only be done the old way and I do not recommend them if you are worried about wear.

Billetflow

I have all Billetflow , ............... I've had them on the Cobra for 7 years now. I do not have any problems.

BTW, ... Doug at Billetflow speaks the truth, .... perhaps some of you can't handle that.

He said it the best. Hard coat is best, but he just filled in on a niche for the certain customers who wanted colors! Not to mention the screws vs cir-clips. :D
