swingarm bolt

<< < (2/2)

gowen:
When buying used dirtbikes, usally there is always a axle bolt siezed.. I've had ones that heating and beating didn't budge.. Those I ended up using a jig saw and had to cut the swingarm off completely and then cut the bolt out of the frame. That was an old '93 CR125.. Thankfully I ended up with a swingarm for $20+shipping on ebay.. Then I've used snapon and craftmens sockets to beat on the axle to get it out.. Ruines the axle but gets it done sometimes.. Before you start smashing things, fallow David and Allen's ideas, then check ebay for replacement parts or going prices so you know what you are going to have to pay..

liquid wrench, air impact, brass drift, heat, cursing, etc.
