85 & 86 tri z swing arm difference

[ktmcrasher]

hi I've got a 86 tri z and I've just purchased a 85 swing arm as it was in much better shape including all the guards and runners. can anybody confirm that the only difference fitment wise is the main pivot bearings in the swing arm have a slightly different outside diameter but everything else is the same?

I would suggest that you use the search feature in the future, but you are a new member and may not have access to the other parts of the forum.

This came up on my first search attempt hope it helps:

Yes I used the search and found the same information. That's where I got the info regarding the larger outside diameter bearing. But as I'm a new member I couldn't reply on that thread. I want to know if it will bolt straight on to the 86 using the 86 linkage
