I need to know the outside diameter for the swingarm pivot bearings. I took my swingarm to a machine shop to bore the bearing races out because the previous owner apparently did not believe in maintenance. Is the OD the same where the dust seals on the inside of the swingarm were?

Also, if I were to have this shop machine me some bushings to replace the bearings, what would be the best material to use: Delron, urethane, polyurethane, vinyl, other?

Thank you for any answers to these questions.

scratch that, i just looked at mine and it's too eaten up. i would rather hear you say that you would like to know the size of the bearing and the collar so you could fab one up. but even then i don't have that measurement either. lol.
