those bolts ( and I was thinking this from the start ) is the chain adjustment tension bolts.
CANNOT identify needed hardware on rear axle - help?
Honda diagrams of the trx200's frame and swingarm are of zero help so I hope I can glean some knowledge from y'all here.
I recently ordered another round of parts for my $20 scrapyard quad, this time a much needed new carb, and fuel petcock valve. However one thing is still in my way - NUTS AND BOLTS!
There is a flange nut and/or flange bolt on the rear swingarm/subframe that helps keep the two components properly mated and prevents flexing. (Near the rear sprocket)
The previous owner apparently removed or lost this hardware and improvised by jamming a single random bolt into the bolt hole and threaded two nuts onto it back to back.
This setup allows the frame/swingarm to flex/move, causing the chain to pop off every time you go over a bump or turn too tightly.
Can anyone help me identify this hardware in terms of which nuts and bolts are needed, and where they can be acquired? I apologise for my ignorance, this is my first time working on one of these little hondas, and my head is spinning!
