RUDEDAWG Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Getting ready to build my own swingarm. I was wondering if anyone had a stock swingarm laying around that could measure the ID. and OD. of the front bearing/pivot tube with a digital caliper, any help would be appreciated. :thumbsup: Quote
swrbansheeboy Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 if your realy getting serious about building a swingarm dont mess around trying to fab up the head tube or carrier, give jj&a a call. they have everything you need and it's alot cheeper and easier to buy it from them than trying to fab it yourself... http://jjandaracing.com look under swingarm components, you will find everything you need for your project...

Wow, I would imagine this will help the original poster, but I know for one that it will help me a ton. I've been planning to build my own swinger for some time now. After the most recent trip, it's apparent that I really need it. Plus, I'm porting a set of cylinders for the bike now, so it will become very necessary soon! Thanks! For me at least! Quote
locogato11283 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 i also use the stuff from jj&a. having parts machined is not cheap, especially if youre only doing one. it might be cheaper to get your front pivot tube and carrier straps from jj&a. Quote
sleeper06 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Thats good shit to know,the last one I made cost a fortune in tubing alone (Chromoly), Quote

Hey man, thanks for the info. I will be ordering up some stuff from them today for sure! I was almost thinking about buying a used swinger and raping it for the head tube. Not going to now! Thanks. I owe you a beer. Did anyone check out their helmet cam in the garage sale section? That thing looks killer! Quote
