Rear Carrier bolt Bent


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, Im having huge issues with the Long Bolt that slides through the axle carrier. It is bent and stripped at the thread end. I bought what looked to be a replacement so I lined up my rear sprocket and started banging it out when all of a sudden I noticed the bolt I bought looked to be the rite length but it was a hair to wide to go in.

 

I still have the original swingarm and carrier chopped for suspension. Mabey its a year thing.Mine is an 03.

 

This Bolt looks about rite but it looks a little to thick.

Can anyone help a brother out. This is killing my whole warm season. Its bent bad this time. It could ding or even wedge itself into the rear sprocket and that could lead to a whole lot of hurt. For me and SHEE!!!

I'm thinking about cutting the center tube off my upper carrier bolt, like the early ones, so I can use 2 shorter bolts instead of one long one, seems like you could tighten it down better like that.

 

I wouldnt do that. Sems sketchy. If that long one bent and stripped the bolt rite off that power+weight. Cutting it and adding 2 shorter bolts could be even easyer to bend/break.

 

I got my parts guy to get me what I need for a few dollars. I should have rode it over and showed him cause I was banging it back in and riding it. I kept forgeting. I hope this works. It doesnt look like anything besides that bolt.

 

If its real bad how much for that carrier with both bolts rjdgriff?

I have a roundhouse carrier I'll sell you. I bought it from a guy and never did anything with it. It's still sitting in the box he shipped it in. I'll sell it to you for $60 shipped

 

PM SENT.
