Swingarm Bearing Retro Fit Kit / '82-'00 FXR - Bagger

Custom Cycle Engineering retrofit kit that swaps worn Cleve Bloc swingarm bushings for spherical bearings to sharpen dresser handling.

The stock Cleve Bloc style swingarm bushings let the rear end wander. This Custom Cycle Engineering kit replaces them with spherical bearings that transform how an early FXR or dresser tracks. The bearings greatly reduce stiction at the swingarm pivot for quicker reaction to rough pavement and eliminate the lateral and torsional movement that makes the stock setup feel vague. Choose the kit with or without a pivot shaft.

Common Questions About the Retro Fit Kit

What does it actually change?
It removes the play and stiction of the stock Cleve Bloc bushings, so the swingarm reacts faster and the bike tracks more precisely, especially noticeable on dressers.

Do I need the pivot shaft version?
Choose the with-pivot-shaft option if your existing shaft is worn; otherwise the without-shaft kit reuses your good hardware.
