There was also a few prototype cast swingarms, Haydug has one of them.

You mean this one?

Happy there may be a sleeve under there. I got my dale and either it was bored to big at the factory or someone was getting creative, but it had a sleeve pressed in there to make it the proper diameter for the bearings.

Yes this was from factory I bought it new.

Sleeved or not, I wouldn't be letting go of that swingarm! The standard setup with the hole really sucks. The outer race just isn't strong enough to hold up without some metal behind it.

never weighed them, but supposed to be lighter, and stronger. I've never ran it either, had it powdercoated to put on my woods bike, but haven't had time.

From conversations most have that hole. I guess I got some weird one where it just didn't break through all the way.

also, looking from the first picture, the "top view"
the swing arm on the left looks a little shorter and a different shock location, might be camera angles but if you look at the front (pivot bearing end) it looks to be about 1/4" back from the other one, now look at the other end (axle bearing) looks a little shorter on that end as well, with that in mind look at the shock mounts, the one on the left looks farther back(towards axle bearing)more that the 1/4" , that is already being given at the pivot bearing.....
anyone follow me? or do i need to shut up and get some glasses:eek:
