What size is the right side swing arm nut. None of my sockets work
@nickflock51018 жыл бұрын
Same thing happened to my nightster. The rear swing arm pivot bolt is the worst design ever. Two little nubs on that retaining plate keep it from spinning. With the torque and vibration of the motor those little nubs are useless. They need to design something else. Let me know if you have found anything more heavy duty. I really wish they had a single bolt pivot shaft and maybe two retaining plates on each side of the motor mount. Cheers!

I haven't done a rubbermount yet, but could you install the tube and the plate at the same time? If so, I'd put three fat tack welds on the inboard side of the plate to permanently lock it to the tube. What the cheapass MoCo do for convenience is not always best for the owner!

I got no problem getting the bolts out - my spindle is seized in the crankcase !

I dont understand how you drilled a hole into the side of that shaft while it was in the motor. I also dont understand how that shaft gets stuck to where you cant get it out. Why not just hit it out with a hammer?

I also don't understand how this hole helped to remove the shaft. On my bike, it got stuck so much that a hammer does not help. I'll try the puncher.

The rubber mount you have already fitted in the video. How did you get the old one out? Did you have to in bolt the engine? This video saved me by the way thank you

I'm pretty sure I loosened all the motor mounts and stabilizer bolts, then used a block under motor and a pry bar. might have used a brass bar to knock it loose. what point of install are you at?

+504CharlieBoy504 I'm pretty much at the same point in this video but the old mount is still in place. I'm waiting on parts!

You dont show where on it you drilled! Do you have the old one? Did you hit the bolt?
