Replaced the bearings and seals in the cushion lever on a 85 lt250r the son and I are reworking, so its been a part awhile. The gap between the frame and the sides of the lever seem wide. I don't remember any spacers when we took it apart and the parts breakdown does not show any. Am I missing something? I would not have expected the frame to spring out that far when it came out but I don't remember. Could someone look at their 85 and see if this is correct?
So no one has an 85 LT250r they can take a quick look at?
I'll grab a pic of my 90's setup a bit later tongight after work and class. it should be the same as the 85-86.
Here you go, hopefully it helps.
I got an 85' but I can't seem to post pics while others can.
Its easier to use photo bucket.
Thanks Dutch Rutter for the pics. I was actually looking for a pic of the suspension linkage that the top part of the shock mounts to. Guess I wasn’t very clear, the parts book call it a cushion lever. I was actually able to look at one over the weekend and there are no spacers on his either so I guess I have it back together OK.
Thanks again
Laddbg , the frame opens up pretty far when you pull that bolt out nothing to worry about it will draw back in. I have an 85 and i have rebuilt everything on it . I was also concerned about how far the frame spread when i shot the bolt out with air ratchet, but drew back in nicely.
