Is there a collar for extended swing arms?

[turbowrenchhead]

I bought a +4 swing arm off of ebay and installed it onto the machine. When I took it up north I notice the it would sway back and forth. I had to crank the sh*t out of the main bolt before it held. I pulled the main bolt off and pulled out the swing arm. The roller bearing cage is much larger then the main bolt. What do ppl do the shim it?

there are caps that go on either side of it to space it. along with a chain roller that goes on the chain side..

that /\
unless your saying the inner diameter of the bearings is far greater than the outer diameter of the bolt ????
then you'll need to contact the manufactuer
there is no bushing/spacer that goes in there

 

[turbowrenchhead]

Yes, the i.d. of the bearing cage is much larger then the bolts o.d.

i can only guess this is an ebay "swingarm shop" swinger ????
better write them on ebay, thay may have installed the wrong bearings in it ???
are you sure your bike has the stock bolt thru it ???
/\/\ had to ask, stranger things have happened

wait, upon further thought, see if the inner races will pull out of your old swinger's bearings, maybe they don't supply them

 

[Awk08]

yes, if they did not supply the washers, caps, swinger chain roller, then i don't believe they supply the 2 bushings, parts 9 & 10 in this bikebandit.com schematic............

you'll need to pull them from your old swinger, clean, grease and reinstall into this swinger

yep, you have to use everything off the stock swingarm except the bearings.
