my chain got too loose so i go to tighten the chain and i come to find that the preveous owner stripped the 2 bolts to loosen the sprocket what the he11 do i do?

[quader400]

you dont have to tuch the sprocket. go to the rear of the swing arm and loosen all four of the swing arm bolts then there are notches next to the rear sprocket that is how you tighten it turn it to the right.

[Brad]

there are 2 bolts to loosen the swingarm correct? those are stripped

[darrell43031]

ya try grabbing them with vice grips if that don't work take a grinder and cut a line all the way across the bolt and use a screwdriver on it

[quader400]

if you ride a 400 then there are 4 bolts. all across the end of the swing arm. the manul that your quad comes with i think tell you how to do it

[Brad]

300EX = 2 bolts

[quader400]

oh then i dont know post a pic of it if you can. do they stick out cause then you could loosen them with like a wrench or something

[Brad]

i like darrels idea of usin a grinder to cut a hole down em then use a flathead and i dont have a digita cam or i would thanx both of u. and i tried a wrench but my tools suck

[redrooster]

try using penetrating oil or put the heat to the pigs and they should break free then i would probably get new ones and then frequently go over them so they then their like butter when you do have to take them off!!
