|  88 RM125/250 swing arms- same?????
Hello- I was taking in my 88 RM250 engine because the gear box or crank was jammed. This has turned out to be a piece of the piston skirt that has dropped into the crank case(little sigh of relief). We were worried that a gear had broke or a tooth from a gear had broke off, and jamming up the gear box. Anyway, I was attempting to take the engine out I noticed when I went to take the swing arm bolt out that there is a crack horizontally across the swing arm pivot bearing journal. Plus the swing arm bolt would not come out. The bearing sleeve had bonded to the bolt, so I had to cut swing arm bolt out.  NOW FOR MY QUESTION: IS A 1988 RM125 swing arm the same as a 1988 RM250 swing arm?? I have access to a 125 swing arm. If I can use it then I won't have to get mine welded or what ever needs to be done. Help me out guys and gals. Thanks |
