so as you mess with this stuff and come up w/ ideas you make enough mistakes that you learn the better way to do things. well when i built "huey" the 1st 250 yerf i needed clearance for the fwd mounted carb, so i lengthened the tabs on the chassis where the swingarm mounts. well it worked but then i tried something different when i rebuilt the swingarm on my yerf. if you lengthened the mounts on the swingarm adding about 3 inches. well this worked out better. it got a lil more wheelbase, didnt change the pivot point and where it lined up w/ the top shock mount and allowed me to do away w/ the brackets i had made to work w/ the longer shocks i had which ended up placing the bottom shock mount close to where the axle was, which killed any leverage making the shock not really work right. so that is what i did here. a long, tedious process because being straight is crucial, but it all turned out pretty good
