I had a slight problem with the installation that caused one of the sleeves to distort, really a mistake on my part not the product. I ordered a new set and posted here about the issue. The next thing I know I received a private message apologizing for the problem and a refund of the charge. What can I say, John and his company are a class act and epitomize the meaning of customer service! If only all companies and their owners were like John!

Thanks brother

Don't forget to swing back by & let us know how they work out when you get them installed.

John @ Rockout.

I purchased and installed a set this winter, while also upgrading my TC88 to the hydraulic tensioners. I was hoping, expecting some noise reduction. After firing it up and going for a ride, I'm extremely impressed with the results. Sound's like an engine should. No more annoying ticking heard even with the windshield installed. Great product, great instructions. Thanks .

Thanks man, I really appreciate your support & taking time to share your experience. Just in time for a tap free summer!

I purchased a set of the Rockout inserts for my 2010 Ultra not being sure if they would help with over 82,000 miles on the clock.

Removed rear rocker arm assembly first and found both rocker shafts seized in the base and thought for sure that my rattle was something else other than the shaft hitting the bolts. Continued on with the installation of the inserts by tapping a steel rod of the same size of the bolt hole from the bottom side to line up the shafts and moved to the front rocker assembly. Found same issue with the shafts seized as on the rear assembly so repeated the process of lining the shaft up and installed the inserts.

Even though my shafts were seized in the assembly's at room temp, they must free up when at operating temp because my motor has never been this quite since new.

I'm a believer in these inserts now and will be purchasing two more sets for the other two Harley's in my garage!

Thanks Steve both for the purchase & the follow up. It's not the first time users have found success with Rockouts even with no apparent marks on the bolts, tight shafts etc. As you say, the aluminum heats up/expands much more than the steel shafts.


Have a safe, tap free riding season!





John @ Rockout.

Hmm..."tight shafts"

That's a good thing...right?
