636 swingarm swap

I've looked all over and read a bunch of threads but none that showed the swingarm swap.. putting an 05-06 swingarm and wheel on a 03-04 636.. what spacers go where.. which shock is better to use, link rods?
I know someone has to know, Johnnyp you out there??

Re: 636 swingarm swap

It is very simple, what specific questions do you have? All that really needs to be done is one seal needs to be swapped into the 05 swingarm from the 03/04....And if you want to use the 05 shock then 2 seals and 1 bushing needs to be swapped over into the linkage

Re: 636 swingarm swap

does this need a 05-06 rim or can you use the 03-04 rim on a 05-06 swingarm?

Yes you need the 05 rim to use the 05 swingarm, you can put 05 wheel on 03/04 swing arm but not the other way around...The hub on the 03/04 is too wide to fit between the 05 swaingarm....

Re: 636 swingarm swap

he is doing it because he already swapped in an 05 front end(better forks and the wheels looks better). So he wants the back to match.
