kx250 a5 1979

[bingowings]

Does any one know of any swing arm bearing kit for a 1979 KX250 A5 or a kit from another model which may fit?
Thanks Rob.

Pivot Works does'nt list the 79,but there's a slight chance they might have something that'll work.
If you have a local bearing shop near by,they should be able to get you what you need....just bring them the old bearings to be sure you get an exact fit.

There's a company next door to me called Capeway Bearing here in Plymouth,MA...they've been there for 25+years.They have every bearing for all my bikes and sleds.There's been times when I need an odd-ball one for something else,and if they don't have it,they'll make it right there on site usually in a day.

It is a obsolete bearing so a trip to your nearest bearing house should get you going.
If you don't have a bearing, just measure the OD of the pivot pin, the ID of the swing are pivot point, and the approximate length, a little shorter won't hurt anything.
These bikes used the same bearings.
Do a search on eBay, you never know who might have a NOS set.
