I have a 89 suzuki lt250s that needs a swingarm, anyone know what other years i could use? Could i use lt230s swingarm? from pics I see the 88 lt230s H looks like it will work?>

 

According to the parts site I use only a 1990 Lt250S will swap, now some of the bearings are interchangeable with other years. Other years may work but may need more modifications. Someone may have swapped one and be able to tell you whats different.

 

I think people have put LT250R swing arms on, but I don't think that is ideal. Plus you'll need the whole rear end with shock and axle.

 

Thanks, having a hard time find a lt250s swingarm unfortunately

 

Not surprised as there are a lot of hard to find parts for the LT250s since it is only
a two year machine. I'm using mine :-) but I'll keep an eye out for one. I see parts
LT250s once in a while.

Is yours not fixable or just missing?

 

I brought it with bearings wore when i replacing the bearings i noticed the swingarm had a few cracks in it, allowing it to become egg shaped so the new bearings dont really fit right. so unless i have it welded it will always eat bearings and i bought this for my kids and have not drove a clutch before, so adding more concern to the popping clutch stress on the swingarm.

 

I've found parts and/or parts machines using SearchTempest: Search all of Craigslist nationwide & more
for Craigs List. Not sure where you are located, but I found 5 of them on that
this morning one for $300.
