Default Extended Swingarm Question

What size brake lines(do I need a new emergency brake line too?) should I get for my 660 raptor if I get a +4 swingarm and what chain do you recommend would work for that swingarm as well?

Thanks for the help!

27 inch rear brake line i think, and you might need a banshee style tm slider to prevent chain slap, i like the RK and D.I.D. chains.

Get rid of the e-brake and cable if you extend the swingarm. Any 520 chain should work, just needs to be 8" longer, I recommend the o-ring style. Any dealer should carry these, or you can add on to your original chain with a short piece of chain and have 2 master links.

Thanks for the help. I just want to make sure I get everything I need so I'm not stuck waiting on parts I would need to order.

When you get the swingarm, your going to want to leave the chain a little looser than normal because when you sit on it, its going to tighten up because of the geomitry. I would suggest getting a spring loaded chain tensinor so your chain dont get to much slack when you hit any bumps.
