I just joined the forum about a week ago and I already ran into a slight problem converting my '72 swingarm to a '76 that I just bought off ebay. I did a search and most of what I read made it seem as this was a simple bolt on change-- but that's not the case with mine. Wheel axle and swingarm axle are fine but problem is in the width at the end of the swingarm (where the wheel axle goes) looks to be about 5/8" wider than the '72. So my two problems are: 1--rear shocks mounts on swingarm are a bit too wide and 2--spacing for the wheel is too wide. The only easy solution I thought about was "squishing" the swingarm but something tells me this isn't a good idea. Any help would be great.
