While looking at a recent thread of custom XB's, I saw a Lightning with a jacked-up tail section. (typeone's to be exact). He listed it as a product from PM Performance. I tried a search but don't know who they are. I think Trojan was going to sell them at one time. I know they carry a complete tail section kit with a new seat section and the spacers. I am just looking to get the spacers and use the stock seat. I sent a few PM's with no luck. Anybody out there know where I can get them?

+ 1, I would like to do the same thing too. I have just been to lazy to start asking a bunch of questions.

Fireflyer, sorry if you PM'd me and I didn't respond, been swamped lately...

pM-Performance.ch or Frank-Parts.de have the spacers. with the pM kit you can reuse the stock seat with some heat to the pan and modification to the latch mechanism and rear brake reservoir (line is stretched tight once lifted)

the Frank-Parts kit can be bought separately from the tail/seat piece, not sure if Trojan sells it that way but I know Frank-Parts will. i dont think you can use the FP kit without major modification to the stock seat pan, at least thats what they told me. the lift is a tad higher than the pM kit and the fit to the airbox is too severe.

once you do the tail lift, you'll want a custom seat or at least reshaped foam, your jewels will thank you for it
