Swingarm help

[derheim]

Well I drilled out my bearing due to the being seized to the swing arm. But then I got to thinking is the hole the same size all the way thru or is there a stop for the bearings to shoulder up to. I have another one but the bearings are the same way. Stuck. Just curious as if I messed my current swing arm up and if I need to try and get these bearing out of the older one. I did a search here and online but came up empty.

Yes there is a shoulder stop. Just installed mine. The old bearings are a BITCH to get out. I used lots of heat and then finally a sawzall to cut one and then a long drift to drive the other out.

Yeah I got the other ones out just now. I used a washer the same size as bearing but shaved the sides down so it would slide through the bearing to get inside.

all thread, spacer and two nuts and it came out pretty easy.
