Just a quick hello and intro:) I grew up riding 3 wheelers in the (80s '83 Big Red, '84 Big Red, '84 Tecate, and an '86 250R) , after graduation I never got another one. About 5 months ago a buddy gave me an '85 Big Red basket case with a great motor. I am finally getting around to rebuilding it starting with a frame swap. I found this place while looking for some exploded views of the swing arm and front axle. Any ides, help, links or anything you think I can use, will be appreciated:)

Hello gunner. I live in Dutton now. Lived in Flathead 18 yrs., Helena area, & even Clinton by you. 3-wheelers in MT are pretty rare so it's good to see ya come forward. Findig more and more though. Currently finishing a 84 200es for my son. There are two big reds in polson. One has a bad motor (smokes), I think its a 84 & an 85, but I can't find them now on the net. Check your paper, may have the parts you need for a swap.

Thanks, I've been watching the paper and Craigs list, but no luck so far. I actually learned to hang glide on the small hills near Jens.
