Question on swingarm bolt 76 550
« on: March 17, 2012, 10:21:34 AM »
Is this the correct bolt?? Also there's a slight bit of play... Should I have washers inside of it???

I am pretty sure that is the wrong bolt it looks like it will hit the sprocket nuts etc when they are put on...

The shock is threaded.  Hmm, what shocks are those? They do look a tad wide.

They are not correct. The bottom mounting on mine is a perfectly snug fit (top pic). Measure the width of the top shock mount, I work in mm. :)

could I just measure the width and replace inside of shock with some thick washers to push the shock snug toward the bolt?

Well if you can't exchange them you dont have much choice. You will need to do the same to the top.
