Loosen the upper and lower axle housing bolts.... ( The axle housing on 1987-1988 models uses 4 mounting bolts. The axle housing on 1989---on models uses 2 long bolts and nuts. ) After you do that then you must loosen the 2 chain adjuster locknuts and turn the them clock wise to tighten the chain.... There ARE MARKS on each adjuster.... Make sure they are both the same or the rear end will be out of alignment....After you are done, make sure you tighten the ajuster nuts and the upper and lower axle housing nuts and bolts.. The upper housing bolts should be torque down to about 85ft.lb. and the lower bolts around 45ft.lb. of torque

The friend of the cousine of the girlfriend of my girlfriend is coming over tomorrow at my place, and she will fix this chain problem.

Thanks everyone for your contribution, I thank you all from the bottom of my left heart, and special thanks goes to enFORCER who without him I would have not got a good quality answer in this thread, thanks indeed.
