okbeast Posted July 9, 2007 Report Posted July 9, 2007 Got my +4 swinger this weekend and have 1 question. The two bolts in the back that pinch down on the carrier are not there, and the holes are not threaded. I thought the swingers I have seen before had allen bolts with the bottom holes on the swingarm being threaded. Do I just need to get a bolt with some washers and use that to pinch together or what?

Yep, some nice allen head for looks, but anything that fits the holes will work. I had to get some for mine, no big deal. Washer on both ends is a good idea so you don't tear up the arm. Quote
okbeast Posted July 9, 2007 Author Report Posted July 9, 2007 Alright cool, are some swingarms threaded on one side so a bolt is not needed? I was under the impression of that for some reason. Quote
dajogejr Posted July 9, 2007 Report Posted July 9, 2007 You could probably find one, but I haven't run across one yet...they've all been "pass through" bolts. I'd be worried about snapping a bolt of in the swinger if it was threaded... Quote
okbeast Posted July 9, 2007 Author Report Posted July 9, 2007 Well guess I was wrong then, did you throw a lock washer on there or does the natural tension keep them from backing out? Quote
