i wrote the dude and he said the bolt will go thru and it came off of a rolling chassis, but i could fix it anyway if theres trouble with that tube even if i have to put welds down it then redrill it and repolish
and none of the damage is visible from the top
 
I hope so I've seen it like that before and I'm not sure how a straight bolt would go through it, and when the bolts bent the rear end is out of alignment. It looks like they use a crow bar to try and adjust the chain tension and bent it. Probably could replace the tube. If you have to bend it, the hard part is keeping the tube round. Good luck just wanted to give ya a heads up, we were looking at it for or other build till we saw the bend.
 
I seen it on the bay also.I agree with lasx the tube looked pretty bad from the pics and I would be surprised if the bolt actually went through.Even if you factor in the repair, cost of the metal it was still worth the $51.
 
so who knows, is this a "double bearing/row" carrier??? and what does that mean,
2 bearings on each side???
 
got the rad carrier in the mail today, it is a little banged up on the bottom, but the bolt hole is tried and true, now just gotta figure out whether to put it on now, or extend a different swinger and put a banshee axle in it, so i'll have both and swap out when i'm riding different places, we got some really tight trails here that wider atv's wont fit, i ride with alot of bikes????
