Foolish_Built Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Ok so I just picked up a 1998 Banshee today and it has a Extended swing arm with Roundhouse carrier... When putting it on the lift I noticed the rear axle to be sloppy also the brake caliper stay brake bracket free floating around... Question is , what keeps the brake bracket stationary to the carrier?? Don't want it to stay sloppy, causes the brake caliper to bind on the Rotor!!!

hoppedupandcutdown Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 there is a pin on the swingarm that aligns in a slot on the bracket, sometimes a bushing is required for a proper fit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foolish_Built Posted February 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Yeah the pin is through the hole on the bracket, I'm guessing that there is no bushing then, because it seems as it's just floating around the axle behind the C-clip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n2otoofast4u Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 If the bracket is tight on the carrier how do you suppose you are going to rotate the carrier to tighten/loosen the chain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87sheerips Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Pic of pin on the swingarm that holds the brake stay and prevents it from spinning round and round.... Like hopped up said.... There is slop there and you probly need the bushing. If you get me dimensions I can machine you a bushing to your specifications and we can get it tightened up... I would just run it for now, ain't gonna hurt anything being a bit sloppy. That what I tell my wife on the weekends too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
