Hello, New here and just finished a Montgomery Ward 525 swing arm mini bike in Brittany Blue. As luck would have it I just found another identical complete chassis and fork assembly for $45 at a swap meet. However, it was missing the hard to find oil impregnated, flanged bronze...

Finally Done! This was my first build, brought me back to my youth! Started as a garage sale buy (see my albums) Added shocks, new seat, had to rebuild rear brake. I kept the B & S for a later rebuild and threw a Harbor Freight engine. Kept it basically stock, added air filter, carb jet &...

Someone had welded a plate to reinforce original fork plate/support. Bad job, I plan on grinding off added plate at welds/both sides and rebuild/reinforce original plate. May have to fab new fork tees out of 3/16 plate. Any ideas/input would be appreciated.:shrug:

I will be ordering a new jack shaft assembly later in the week. Need some help in locating the flange bushings, see pics. I can rebuild a new support bracket myself. The bushings seem to be cast iron. Should I replace with the same or use bronze.

So it looks like I am the proud new owner do an Arco Bushwacker sold by Montgomery Ward. This is quite ironic as my mom owned a Montgomery Ward store for many, many years in the 70's & 80's. that was a total blast for me as a teen. My little sister grew up in the back of the store. Literally. I...

Looking for one, any condition....

Here is a pic of a brake band bracket off a Montgomery wards 525. In the pin is a small hole, should there be a cotter pin in there to keep the pin from sliding out, I'm assuming so, what does yours have? Thanks

Picked up a Montgomery Wards 525 Mini Bike. Never finished my Trail Blazer project yet either, that is another story. Took a lot of flack from my Wife, "What do we need that for", but got a good deal so here it sits in my garage. Or at least seemed like a deal, till I dug into it. He said it...
