Default Swing arm Woes please help!!!!!!!

Hello, I have a 1989 fxsts frame only and i am looking for a swing arm. I called the local Harley dealer and he says that i can use swing arms from 1988 to 1999 he also stated that the rear axle hole size was different. Does anyone know if a 2000 and later would work because I can seem to find them more offten with the pivot bearings, shaft and shocks. If so what are the differences. Thanks for your time and help.

Try listing this in the "parts wanted" section, or try e-bay or better yet go to a swap meet. With some digging around you should be able to find and older one.
