Anyone got an old XTR 970/971 rear derailleur kicking about. Doesn't matter if knackered as I just need some bits out of it. I seem to be missing something out of the spring assembly that tensions the chain as it won't assemble properly  The swingarm stop no longer stops it going all the way round if that makes sense. |

If you're desperate could you drill the body and put a small (2/3mm) bolt through to act as a stop?

Cheers Rob - you're local too which helps  I seem to be missing the first washer which slides over the bolt in assembly 6 of the attached pdf. In some places online it looks like there should be an o-ring in that assembly too. Another thing is the stop itself (part 9) seems shorter on mine than it does in the picture, so it doesn't stop the swingarm going all the way round if that makes sense. That was why I first noticed it because I took the chain off to clean it after the forum ride and the arm flew all the way round. Really strange as I'm sure I didn't lose anything when I took it apart, so if anything's missing it must have fallen off in use. Attachments:
