1983 185s Rear Axle Interchange

[DanDricken]

I tried using the search function but couldn't find an answer to my question (please don't tear me apart if I missed something).

I am replacing the rear axle carrier bearings on a 1983 Honda ATC 185s for a family friend. Rear axle was clunking around when I got the machine. I took it all apart and pressed the new rear bearings/seals in, and when I slid the axle in it still clunks around and isn't tight. After observing the axle closer, it looks like the axle is wore down substantially on the brake side bearing journal, they must have been riding it with blown out bearings for a while Now on to my question, I have been cruising ebay and am finding many different axles, I would like to know what year/models of other Honda Trike axles will interchange with this. From what I found the 1981-1983 185s should be interchangable, but what about any of the other models.

Thanks in advance.

81/82 185s axles have a different sprocket bolt pattern than the 83 .
I'm pretty sure all years 200s are the same 84-86 200s .

How much are you thinking for the axle? I will assume everything on the axle is in good shape (splines, threads, etc.) I will give the owner a call today and see which direction he wants to head.

splines are good everything is tight. Just noticed sprocket hub is bent where I guess PO must have whacked on it last axle I got shipping was about $60. If you want it just whatever shipping is
