Hawk squeaky swingarm
It has been making noise any time the arm moves, started after the first week .
I have some questions before I start taking it apart Does it have needle and thrust bearings? Or bushings (rubber, brass,other)? If not rubber has anyone added a grease zert to the tube instead of having to disassemble it ? T.I.A.

I also use the TT250 swing arm axle, which is a double ended stud with cup washers and nuts instead of a big bolt like the stock unit. Vastly superior design.

I added a grease zerk on my swingarm and pumped it full of marine grade grease. I do ride my Hawk through a good bit of water so that helps keeps the water out.

This started after crossing a small creek. About a foot deep
