Default warrior troubles !!!

im having some wierd problems with my warrior.. for some reason i can not get the rear end to stay straight i get it so it looks straight .. or as straight as it will go.. then ride and it goes crooked throws the chain and knocks a hole in the case [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] fixed that but now i still cant figure out how to get it to go straight .. well i know how.. but it wont go straight no matter what i do.. wonder if the adjusters could be worn out or something ? i thought maybe the swimg arm itself is bent but it sure doesent look like it.. anyone heard of anything like this before ? thanks for any help

Start with both the adjusters all the way out. Then turn each one equal times until you get the tension where you want it. Then tighten the crap out of those carrier bolts. Tighten it to the point where you think you're about ready to break your ratchet. Once that thing is torqued down enough it won't move on you.

Just be sure you don't over-tighten your chain either.

When tightening the carrier bolts, I've found it's best to use 6-pt sockets/wrenches instead of 12-pt. Especially on the lower one with the 14-mm nut.

Also make sure the axle bearings aren't worn out. Warriors are notorious for this.
