Joe,
Madman will get me dialed in with the sissy bars and then it will be like taking the gloves off at the next race
Taner,
The bars were cut down by my local chassis shop and installed Super Stock rules which do not allow them to extend beyond the bumper. There are heim joints for adjustment and there's also an upper/lower setting. Four bolts and the bars drop out. Here's a pic of the custom bracket for my 9" - I like the addition of the 4 outriggers from the mounting plate to the housing.

Taner - the bars don't stick out past the bumper... you can leave them on 
Nasty - I'd like to make it down there before then, but for sure in Dec again.
