look on the JJ&A website, they sale swingarm components separately, the blaster tubes are near the bottom for like $26, i'd grab shock mount ears too

This is the quick and dirty method on my MX powered Blaster:

We added 4" on my son's Blaster and he rides like a maniac with well over 30hp.
Cost? $5 worth of 1/4" x 4" steel and welding rods.

Ironically his aftermarket swingarm which weighs many pounds more has failed,
whereas this modified arm still lives.
