that would be the carrier or bearing carrier or axle carrier whatever u prefer to call it uhh how far is the crack and where??

[Honda4trax250x]

in the notch that u can put a screwdriver or whatever in to turn it, its very small, it cracked when i was tightening it

[CowsBitePeople]

it cracked all the way through??is it from the bottom of the notch to the inside of the carrier??

[Honda4trax250x]

no not all the way through, just like a centimeter, from the end of the notch in, not even into the carrier

[CowsBitePeople]

well as long as its not cracked on the inside it should be fine just use a different notch to tighten the chain or use really big plyers:macho
