Hi guys, new to bikes here. Just bought a 2004 yz125 and it is dire need of swing arm bearings and bushes to be replaced. Got the arm out but the shock linkage bolt that goes through the swing arm was seized solid because of the linkage sleeve! Long story short had to cut the bolt to get it apart... Now struggling to find one to replace it with! Anyone have any idea if any other year yz models used the same bolts on the swing arm or not as yamaha does sell 2001 model swing arm bolts but none are available for 2004? If memory serves right i saw somewhere that between 2000-2005 they were the same but would like to know before i order these super expensive metal bits 🙃🙃
I have one of those in my "Friggin nightmare someday I'm gonna get to that" pile.
Time to time I douse it with Kroil, beat on the bell crank with a rubber mallet and chuck it back til next time haha.
Time before last I finally got it to move a little so eventually I'll take an air hammer to it
Aren't they fun ???? !!!.
