MEC 600 adj. Charge bar

[psweigle]

Is there such a thing? I had this given to me and it had the old style non-bushing bars. I would really like to be able to use it. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

I don't know about an adjustable charge bar, but you could get a new charge bar and bushings from MEC.

Awesome. I wish there were like buttons sometimes.

Thanks to both of you. The universal adjustable charge bar is exactly what I was thinking.

I recommend them, all 3 of my 600Jr's wear 'em. I wanted to avoid the bushing route if possible, these bars accomplish that.
