trench diggers td-1

[stupidlong]

I just got my first pair of td-1's looking for some info on bumpers and cants
I'm guessing that there are a few different sizes of bumpers? I got a 0 degree and a 3 degree cant. both foot beds have the same bumpers on them a large one and a small one. the one on the 3 degree cant seems to sit correctly as every thing touches nicely. the one with 0 degree cant seems to sit high on the side with the large bumper. so I am guessing that with a 0 degree cant you need 2 small bumpers? than what do you do withg the 6 degree cants? a different bumper set or 2 large bumpers or an xtra large st of bumpers?

help me an old time rider bet a newbe hardbooter

Yes, the different cant disks for the TD1 required different bumpers.

Check out the links below for help getting started in Alpine. Good luck!

I put fender washer between base of TD1 and bumpers. Usually one is enough take care about gap, but I also have some thicker washers.

[stupidlong]

the gap on the 0 degree is between the footbed and the cant

and what combo do you use for the 6 degree cant


but the washer idea is great for the 3 degree, on a closer inspection the small bumper dosn't touch the deck

ok all figured ouy now I now know that a bumper for a 0 degree cant has 0 dots on it
a bumper for a 3 degree cant has 3 dots on it
a bumper for a 6 degree cant has 6 dots on it
making it easyer to match bumpers to cants
my problem was I had one 3 degree cant with 3 degree bumpers
and one 0 degree cant with 3 degree bumpers
causing the foot bed to not sit flat on the 0 degree cant


now I just gotta get 2 - td1 - 0 degree purple bumpers
got any on hand?

AFAIK,

Purple = Soft
Yellow = Medium
Red = Hard

Fixed. The color codes are the same for the TD2 and TD3 e-rings.
