Look out for the Rear Sprocket - Make sure it lines up ....

what did you do to reinforce the swinger where it was extended??

I used 1 by 2 thick wall tube, it slides inside the stock tube. Welded it all up then plated the outside (overlaping it) with 1/4 metal. Welded it all up and then smothed it down.

sounds like you did a good job building it. Just looks nakid in the middle. Let us know when you get it mounted

the reason i would consider a gusset across the middle,,,,, is now you are exerting alot more twisting and flexing on the lower shock bracket and its only held on by 2 bolts,,,, i would build a box section support ,,, the workmanship tells me you have the skills so do it and be safe,,,,
