Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you could offer me some guidance on the best swing arm to buy for my new Raptor and what I might expect in terms of installation problems? (like will the stock stuff be compatible or mods required?)

Thanks in advance...

Planned Upgrades:
- 12/44 Sprocket combo
- Dyno jet kit
- Pro Design Air Filter kit
- Big Gun C-sys
- DuraBlue Axle(3/5)
- Swing Arm (+ 4")

the best swing arm is the lonestar. it is only 500 bucks but it does need a few small items to be installed. call them up and they'll fill you in. i think motojoe sells them but i know K&K ATV sells them.

I do not own a raptor...But for my banshee, I went with the lonestar. It fit and works great.

I went the round housing route to get rid of the crazy chain adjustment on the banshee and I love it. ($700 for swing and carrier though)

lonestar sayed their's is 799 with the carrier and brake stay, it comes in powder coat chrome is 150 more, burgards is chrome 1 in. over with billet carrier for 725,you will need a new carrier once you get a new swing arm,you can get the arms without the carrier for 500 or something like that but you will still need a round housing style carrier

I bought the lonestar swing, carrier and brake bracket for 700 from shocconnection.
I think there web site lists it at 750 right now.

It came powder coated in silver vein. For 150, I opted not to do the Chrome for my riding conditions.
