I have a elka shock with the elka linkage with a stock swingarm. And I was thinking of buying a houser swingarm, so my question is will my shock and linkage fit with a 1.25 swingarm?

yes, as long as the houser swing arm is for a stock set up and not one of thier linkage/swing arm set ups.

give john a call tomarrow, im sure he will clarify this if you need to know from them. you may notice your rear shock being soft after the extended swing arm, so be prepared for a revalve.

My buddy ran his Houser with a factory linkage and shock, no problems at all.

I run the exact swinger with an Elka LT Shock and Houser Linkage.

I don't think they offer two seperate swing arms.

I used to run the same setup as you and just switch to a Houser +1.25 swingarm. I sent my rear shock out to Elka for a yearly service and also had them revalve it for the new swinger. Once Pappy gets my frame finished I will be able to complete my winter rebuild project and test out how the new swinger feels.
