    I would hate to see chain chew marks on the top of that nicely painted swingarm. I have had to weld some up from previous owners.

    The chains do rub on the swing arm of these bikes. Was there a slider that cam stock on these ? I check my Mag and sure enough Ihavd chain marks in my swing arm.

    Its probably not on there when the pic was taken. You can either take a strip on heavy duty rubber, or a strip of an old serpentine belt, wrap it around the front of the swing arm and hose clamp it in place.

    CNTYMNTY,

    Could you take a close up photo of your rear wheel axle spacer setup. I can't seem to get the right pieces for both inside on the wheel for both sides and what goes on the outside of the swing arm.

    Oldnslo, here you go. The pics came out kinda dark, so I attached the schematic from my book. Hope it helps. ruwfo, the pegs came off a mid to late 70's husky, then I welded on the wrap around teeth. The shifter and peg add on's are from DC Plastics.

    Cntymnty, I need a new clutch pack for my mag. Can I ask what you use and where I should go to buy? Need both steeliness and fibers ...it's toast...

    My clutch was put in by the guy that rebuilt my bottom end. I know he used Barnett. I looked at their web site a while back and they have the 74 mag listed.
