Is that picture with the axle/ chain adjustment with the axle at its highest (upward) possible point (carrier rotation in the swingarm)?
That plate has to move forward and up and down with the axle to keep the pads on the disc when you rotate the carrier to adjust the chain.

I think bigmatt61 is correct...this exact same thing happened to me when re-installing my rear end. Rotate the carrier with it inside the swing-arm, you will see how the brake caliper mounting holes can get too close to the swing-arm housing, therefore not leaving enough clearance for the caliper to mount.

You have an 88/89 swingarm, with an 85 stay, and the wrong carrier & axle. You cannot mix an 85 stay, carrier & axle with any of the same parts for 86 to 89. Need to keep to specific years; all componets must be 85 for an 85 assembly (swingarm, carrier, stay, axle) as well as for 86 & 87 and 88 & 89, the swingarm being what changed in 88/89.

ok.i went back outside and looked at my son's 89r again.i think you guys are right about the carrier bearring.it's so hard to mock things up without everything you need.i do believe the brake stay will work.i just put the carrier in and had the holes toward the back-top.so hopefully all i need is the brake caliper mount.

85 stays are different from 86-89, 85 bearing carriers are different from 86-89 as well as the 85 axle and rear break mount bracket. Looks like you have a few parts mixed up...however; if you bought all 89 parts, then you should have no issues with any 88/89 swingarm, 86-89 rear brake assembly, any 86-89 carrier and any 86 to 89 axle.
