Single Side Swingarm
I prolly wont ever install one cause I've got way too much other **** I want to spend my money on, but does anyone have any info on availability for an '02 F4i? I think the Single Side Swingarm looks so sick I want one if it's anywhere near a reasonable expense.
thanks bitches! <3

oh man, I don't know if I'm comfortable welding up my own swingarm. I'll think about it but ya gotta remember this is my life we're talkin about and I'd like a little R&D behind the products I buy.
well I'd be welding it, and swingarms are cheap on ebay. i can do all the testing. I'm sure i can cut itand weld supports to keep it stiff and solid...the first road block I see is mounting the rear brake caliper/disk and keeping the wheel inline. I already work seventy hours a week...but if i made this w/ videos to back up that its safe, would i have any takers on a single sides swing arm for your 2001+ F4i? is anyone else from the seattle area interested?
well i tell ya what then. lemme take a look at it and see if I can start brainstorming some stuff. I'll pm ya in the next few days when i get some ideas for working around some of the problems you'll face. then we can decide if we want to try it from there.
carrrefffulll guys.....
wheel alignment will be a major issue.
Single sided arms have a radically different design than the stock arm. I do weld as well and beleive mei cant see any safe way of doing this using the stock arm. Too much stress on the single bearing which is at the outermost side of the axle and if that thing pops... you are at the mercy of the road and other drivers.
