Selling K2/Proflex 4000 swingarm?
« on: March 25, 2013, 05:50:54 pm »
Anyone selling a swingarm for my 98 K2/Proflex 4000 build? I need a 4000, 4500, 5000, 5500 or any other swingarm that will fit my frame. I purchased a frame and swingarm and the metal hardware in the swingarm (left pivot axle, right pivot axle etc) were not there. I was told by the seller that he had them and now he says he cant find them. Good businessman huh? Sheesh. So now im trying to build up this 4000 up and cant find these parts anywhere. Any knowledge of where to get these parts or a complete swingarm would be just wonderful. Thanks

Is this what you are looking for? Even have the square "O" rings.

I recon thats what he'll need as the pivot face inserts stay in the frame when you take the swing arm off.
I counted 4 quad rings as well. But then Im Welsh and we can count up to at least 30. Seems the English can only count up to 3 at the moment. ;) ;D Sorry, rugby joke! Been waiting for ages to get that one in! ;)

Thanks so much for the help guys!! I have whatever parts that are in the frame. Just those for the swingarm I need. I know the parts with the allen bolt (left and right axle pivot. One for the bolt the other threaded and you or someone else would know better than I if theres anything else. Message me if you're interested in selling or just being a great guy and giving them to me. Haha ;D

Ha ha, ha................<GROAN>, yes, even I have to admit that 30-3 was an appalling result for England, but then again, 3 months ago, I would not have even expected they would be in the running for the Championship. Fortunately I was in a pub on Super Saturday and was able to drown my sorrows!

good luck with that crx... I hope ya get all the parts w/ everyone chipping in ;)

Willie, I know that other's have posted this before, but have you thought about producing your 'bearing conversion' as a kit? I'm having a hell of a time finding anyone around my area to make up the axle for it, and I'd like to do the conversion for my 4500 and 5000 frames, let alone wondering if it's possible to work in my 854 or am I stuck with just snagging a swingarm rebuild kit if needed...

I can not take ANY credit for the bearing conversion. Although when I did my OZ I did have 2 kits made up.
