Hey Blue, I'm good. It's soccer season and I'm gone 6 nights of the week. I coach 2 teams, and my daughter is also in a travel league. It's a bit crazy, but I'll be back full time close to the end of October. Thanks for checking though!

everything okay bro? havent heard from you in awhile

Thanks anyways for the help, I'll take pics, dont worry

i cant imangine there is a lot of difference, there is just something that is. i could be something really minor. what the difference is, is not something i can tell from the computer unfortunatley. but for a low price, its worth a shot to see how well it bolts up. let me know if you get it on

I thought this also, but I spoke to the guy and he claimed it would fit. It was a crazy price so I bought it, and might have to do a little fab work to get it to bolt up.

hey red,

assuming the swimarm skid plate you are talking about is the one that protects the sprocket and brak rotor, you answer is no. one from a 2003 will not fit a 2007. actually, 2003 is the only year it fits.

sorry

Hey, can you verify for me that a swingarm skid plate from an 03 Pred can fit my 07???

Thanks bro

it shouldnt be reverse thread...no. what are you using, a normal L-shaped allen wrench. if you get an allen bit that you can attach to a socket wrench you should be able to get more leverage on it. is probably super tight from the pervious owner not knowing what they are doing. the oil filter and plug tighten up as the machine gets used. i hate the allen head too, could probably go to a bolt speciality store and get a hex head bolt with same length and thread pitch.

Hey got a quick question. Changing the oil on my Pred, and the plug will not budge, is it reverse thread?? I was going counter-clock wise and it would not move. I also hate that it's an allen wrench, and not a bolt.
