That swingarm is going to be too long for mx. If you are serious about it I would be looking to trade somebody their stock length(or around stock length) swingarm for yours. If you have the $$ shoot for extended a-arms and shocks, DO NOT USE WHEEL SPACERS. Dont do anything else to the motor, just consentrate on making it handle good.

Yes, it will make a huge difference, if your racing mx put that stock swingarm back on. And yeah, you can use stock a-arms, as long as your not hitting any 60ft gaps you should be alright, but you could probably find some cheap and maybe even used a-arms and shocks on ebay.
