Your best bet is to break the rearend apart and grease everything. You might even have to knock it apart with a rubber hammer. I usually pull the carrier out and clean it and the swingarm and then grease it upon reassembly.

I hate to steal somebody else's quote but what the hell- If you can't figure out how to adjust your chain you probly shouldn't own a three wheeler. I mean, it is tough. I'll give you that. Just think though- once you conquer chain adjusting, you can move on to bigger and better things like clutch adjusting, and maybe, just MAYBE, someday you will bleed a brake. God bless America!:D

I couldnt have said it better myself. The only thing i would like to ad is" buy a manual"

[Macs]

also it says, were the manual scan cuts of to buy a new chain

[coleaclark]

alright first of all im not stupid and second it has a brandnew chain the only way it tightens up is if the rear brake caliper is off then it will tighten and loosen

[coleaclark]

is the caliper stay suppose to be tight on the bearing carrier??? cause every time i move that the bearing carrier moves is it rusted ??

[ceaserthethird]

where at in Oregon are you ? ? ?

[coleaclark]

i live in gresham oregon why you ask???

[Dirtcrasher]

If the caliper mount doesn't spin on the carrier, how can the carrier pivot to adjust the chain??

Sounds like you've got something seized up somewhere.

Also, take the 2 carrier pinch bolts out and screw them in from the bottom. Put something flat, like a large washer in the pinch bolt gap and tighten the bolts against it. You'll see the swingarm seperate just a bit.... It helps open it a bit more and you can spray some crap in there too.

Hmmm - I wonder who said that about adjusting the chain :lol: :D
