Frankthetank Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 I need to remove the powder coating that is inside by the rear carrier. Whenever I am on the gas the carrier spins and loosens the chain. I the bolts down tight but I think the powder coating is making it to smooth of a surface against the round carrier. Any suggestions?

Sandking Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Razor knife or Dremel. This is why I like the 4 bolt carrier housing. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coupelx Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 tighten the carrier in the direction of rotation not against. Problem solved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 it happens with some swingarms.. grind it out with a round sanding drum on a die grinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Look at the tubes where the pinch bolts go through. See if they are touching each other when you tighten the bolts. I have a chrome Lonestar roundhouse swingarm that I had to grind the slots wider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See if they are touching each other when you tighten the bolts. I have a chrome Lonestar roundhouse swingarm that I had to grind the slots wider. I've done both these things to fix the same problem. Works great now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
