reverse rear axle

I reversed my axle (threads on the muffler side). It looks close to the skip ons / support bracket. Will the suspension extend far enough for the bolt to hit the muffler?

A commom "mod" done to make rear axle service easier...downside, sometimes you will run into clearance problems. Don't know if you will run into that problem as suspension compression and rebound changes swingarm angle sweep in 2 dimensions, where interference may occur. :newsmile020:
 
if you fit that rubber cover it will probably hit the muffler, also the axle is in with the nut on the left to avoid any enertia from the wheel spinning, undoing the nut,(equal and opposite reaction and what not) more than likely wont ever come undone but they are just being cautious
