i have no idea. i have the material to build a new aluminum swing arm. but i havent found the time to actually build it. when i do ill ride it for a bit to see if it holds up. and if im comfortable with it ill build a jig to build a few more

alright sounds good.

does anyone know if Durablue made a widening kit for 230s back in the 80's ? there is another 230 i am considering and the ad says it has a Durablue widening kit on it. and i dont want to travel 3 hours for nothing and be disappointed.

Durablue just makes wider axles and axle spacers as far as I know...and from what I hear those spacers are not gonna hold up if your wheeler likes to fly every once in awhile.

Maybe they did make a kit with longer a-arms though now that would be a find!
