Buick455GS Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 I installed the K & M door closures on both of the doors on my IH 886 this past weekend. The installation that I performed is outlined below for those that may need better instructions: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Kirsch Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Looks like you found the same thing that I did, which is the measurements for the bracket on the door frame are BARELY enough to allow the cylinder to compress with the bracket slid as far back as it will go on the slots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 1586 has 520/85R38s (slightly bigger than 20.8x38) slid way in for the axle duals, and there's not a lot of room between the door and the tires. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88power Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I've put a handful of these on, some went better than others, as far as if it was worth it I and everyone else that uses them says yes, especially on a windy day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think chrome is available new anymore. The new ones are all powder coated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunneldigger Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Thanks for the pictures. I guess I never knew anyone made such a closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
