I had no problem at all, more details would be helpful, measurements, perhaps a photo

Did you get the GS axle with the swing arm?
If not you will need it because the GS swing arm is wider.
You will also need to add washers to each side of the swing arm mounting bolt inside the frame.
I am in the middle of this project myself.
I looked at past build threads to help me alot.
