That's a simple little bracket which would take about 1/2 an hour doing it nicely by hand, CNC machining seems way overkill & probably expensive for one unit. I'm sure I have a pattern here somewhere.

why do you need to lower?

I need to lower the roller because iv put a pfr  arm on and being thicker when the chain is on there is not enough clearance between the roller  and the swingarm in the std position

There are other options if you don't want to use the lowering bracket way.

Leigh - not sure if I mentioned and not sure if it is sutiable for your swingarm but for $75 I think it is (not sure there either - early start to the day) Karl Landrus makes one - might be easy enough to fit?

Leigh - not surprised - lets say I wouldn't spend big bucks for a swingarm with him again - sorry to hear.
