ClayAiken Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Im sure someone has done it. Remember one piece is stronger then a weld.In most cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC418 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 My uncle is a fabricator for Boeing & extended my stock swingarm 6 inches. I've been running it for the last 3 years or so with no problems but soon will be upgrading to an arched chrome swingarm probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
