im running 14/42 and have good chain slack with no half links but one problem si that my hole in the carrier is either on top of the axis line that they put in the manual, or just below it on the inside ofthe quad...hasn't done any harm yet, specially without the tm designs chain guard

Without sounding like an idiot, what combo did the moto run with 18"s? And is it the same length chain as the rest of the quads?

Moto's came with 14/40 and all the others 13/42

I went to a 14 front and couldn't get a chain to fit either, 96 was too short, 98 too long. I'm now running 14/40 with a 96
