Thanks for reply don,t like what you said but think you are right.will probably take out spacers but leave weights for now. spacers sure make SS more stable.The early 873 used a lighter axle set up and its a common problem. Check axle shaft end play, remove spacers, and do not run solids, remove rear counter weight if equipped, is about all the advice I can give.
