Ok im just wondering if there is a cheap source. Im thinking at 2-3 bucks a pop even at harbor freight x 16 it may be worth just investing in the lifter tools! What am i missing?

 

I bought 16 of them at O'reilly for about $1.00 each.

 

All you need is two pieces of 5/16" dowell rod from Lowes. Slide them in the holes in the front of the block call it a day. They hold the lifters up forever if that's what you need.

 

A lifter not falling down.

 

what will hold the pen magnet up ?use the 2 long pieces of 5/16 metal rod or brake line .

 

Clothes pin

 

Im just looking for the cheapest and easiest solution. I have heard metal rods with velcro on them is that necessary do I need to grind them to a point . And as per ls1 how to you bend the pen clip and prop it on rocker mount if you go the pin route.

 

This works well...as long as your lifter trays are in good enough condition to hold the lifters up enough to get the dowl in.

 

Zip ties.
