Iike the title say im selling my 87 swingarm to a guy with 85 86 model. I have swingarm carrier shock linkage but no shock. I thought you had to use everything off the 87 to make it work. Any help will be appreciated.  Thanks Brian

From what I've seen you are correct, you need to have everything shock and axle too I believe.

you can use the 86 rear shock. break stay arm will have to be shortened to fit the 87 swingarm  and the 86 axle works to . It all worked when i did mine .

Isnt the newer rear shock longer? So wouldnt it be benificial to swap the newer shock in as well? I didnt even think about the stay arm.  :o
