2003 kx 250 rear brake problem

(1/4) > >>

Johnnycrash:
Hi guys I have a 2003 kx 250 and I noticed the rear calliper is moving up and down quite a lot. The banjo bolt has left a mark in the swing arm so it can't be right. Its attached to the calliper mounting bracket and the mounting bracket is what's moving. I don't see anywhere to mount the bracket to the swing arm to secure it. The axle bolt is the only thing holding it and it's pivoting freely on it and banging around. I'm needing some help in figuring out  how to secure the mounting bracket so it's tight.

Thanks
John

umberto:
Can you post some pictures of the brake?  Here's a how to using photobucket, which is free.

from what I could see, it "looks" like the wrong carrier for that swing arm....the carrier should not be anywhere near that sloppy where it slides onto the swing arm, unless it's really worn that much.


did you buy the bike used?

Johnnycrash:
I bought it used. I'm taking it apart now and it's in pretty rough shape. The swing arm key looks worn out. That sucks
