Buster91dg Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 So I tried tightening my chain today and it's at max adjustment. The chain has 10 hours on it it's a higher end pro taper chain. I can't take a link out because then the chain will be too short. I'm running a 14t front and 41t rear sprocket. It Has a mod quad swing arm chain slider and 43mil all balls chain rollers upper and lower first picture is with carrier at full adjustment Second picture is with carrier all the way in with carrier all the way in if I take a link out I won't be able to get the master link in. https://vimeo.com/160515184 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buster91dg Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 this is it from chariot. cant remember how much it cost, probably around 100. So with that do you ever have to adjust the tension in the back of the swingarm. Do you have a link where I can buy one from. And I see you have an extended swingarm will it still work with the stock one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buster91dg Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Also with that tensioner will it interfere with my skid plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Chariot-Chain-Tensioner-Banshee-2-Hole-Footpeg-Roller-BLACK-/251885171561?hash=item3aa586b369:m:mUt2MqGaSqDvZHEZRJw1abQ i adjusted the chain, so at maximum length the chain wasnt too tight, and tightened the carrier, then the spring loaded tensioner does the rest, on swingarm pivot travel it should still work with stock, just make sure you adjust the chain so its not too tight. youll have to remove your front chain rollers tho. or as surf said, just go down a tooth on ya rear sprocket.

hoppedupandcutdown Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 you sure you're running a 14/41? I went to 13front and had to grind the slot forward to shorten my chain to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
