Anybody have one? I can use a 87-90 also but it will have to have the carrier also.

You'll need a pair of spacers at the Dogbone mount on the swinger also if you do 87-90.. Just changed mine out to an 87. The 85-86 are WEAK!

Very weak, I just over tightened one of those four bolts on my 86' and put a hairline crack on the side of it, nothing broke off but if you tighten the bolt now, you can see the crack widen just a hair. I'm going to try to have mine welded just to get by till I get an aftermarket one.

87' model had a little better suspension didn't they? I'd have to buy a longer shock. Mine is an 86' model, and I'm ultimately going to get a +4 lone star swingarm with +2 lone star axle. And then fix my factory equipment as a spare in case something breaks or if I want to switch out for different types of riding. I do have a set of nerd bars for a 91'&92' 250, I think I've seen them being sold for the quadzilla. Don't quote me but you can look at my project in the general discussion under my 86' LT250R rebuild

I probably can't even get my swinger welded and gussetted for 80, let me think about it. I don't have any money until the first again.

If you get a lone star swingarm  you will never break it and also it has a lifetime warranty. I run a lonstar swinger on my 91 lt250r. Best money i ever spent, i can tigthen my chain in less then a minute. Also can run a 11 tooth or a 12 tooth or a 13 tooth front sprocket  on the same chain. You can't do that on a stock swingarm.

That's what I'm thinking. Now if I could just get my swing arm bolt out. How much did it cost to switch over to the lone star?

Spray that frozen bolt with pb blaster. Let it soak, hit it with a hammer. Let it sit.

I had to do that for six days, the seventh it finally slid out with little damage

I'll try that. It's either do it myself or pay a shop to break the bolt just getting it out.  +k2
