    Rear Shock Bushing ! SX.

    My lower shock mount has play in it as there is no longer any rubber what so ever in there.

    Honda tells me the bushing is no longer available... what the hell.

    Anyone know of a suitable replacment ?

    I looked at an XR 100 R Rear shock bushing and it looks close. but i don't have handy to test right now.

    What are my options ?

    Yeah.. kinda sucks.

    It would bolt up and i could ride it but i don't want metal to metal freeplay again.. i think this is what caused my other swingarm to fail.

    I had my neighbor weld an extra strip on the underside of the flat piece on the swingarm.. honda left out 2 strips of weld on the swingarm assembly on the 85. don't know if it was on purpose but i sealed this one up since i had the chance.

    I"m sure something out there matches the hole diameter for the lower shock mount.. with all the shocks out there .. i am certain i can find a match somehow.
