is the swing arm colour a normal silver on the DTR'S or is a a certain silver, Im wanting to strip mine down in the summer, and re spray it all as the swing arms going a bit rusty, and might re spray all the other silver parts of the bike,, any recommendations?

Has anyone tried to use 4 bearings instead of 2 bearings and 2 bushings ??? My setup is destroyed so it's hard to tell, but it looks like the bushings and bearings are the same size except for the width, which I don't think would matter.
