Fox swingarm/roller lowering kit

Ok guys - how critical is the front chain roller lowering kit on a Fox swingarm on a 1980 Honda CR250. When I try to install the lowering kit it impacts on the brake stay rod - and not by a little bit either - basically the 2 will not go together. It may explain why the front roller mount was previously bent out of the way to allow fit - but I thought this might cause chain running issues.
?
thanks

Have you got one of these kit's Rosco? They also move the stay further away

no I haven't - I have the KLP one which came with the swingarm but as for my dealings with KLP finding it difficult to use. Bit expensive are PD which is a shame - their stuff is awesome and was looking at some bolts from them.
thanks for the link
