00BANSHEE Posted March 19, 2004 Report Posted March 19, 2004 Even after removing the rubber stopper you may still have to grind the lowering strut down a bit on the side that hits the swingarm. I just used a hand file and it only took a couple of minutes to grind down. Let us know how it goes. Quote
BenBB Posted March 19, 2004 Report Posted March 19, 2004 Dirtgrrl, did you get the same one 00Banshee posted? For $20?!? I see them on ebay all the time for $40, cfm performance I think, I need one to replace the one I made and $20 is a damn good price...89 bansheedude how much? Same deal with grease zerks and you re-use the steel bushings? Let me know... Anyway, if you haven't got it on already Dirtgrrl, here's what I do: get the quad on a stand so the rear tires are off the ground. Use a tie down strap from the grab bar to either the rear axle or the skid plate (the stock skidplate has the perfect spot to hook onto). Ratchet the strap just a little to get tension off the bolts for the stock linkage. Loosen the upper and lower "dogbone" bolts at the swingarm and the rear shock linkage. Loosen the lower shock bolt. Remove the two bolts for the stock dogbone, install the new link on the rear shock link loosly, and then use the ratchet strap to raise the rear end to whatever hole you wont to hit on the linkage at the swingarm mount. I leave the rubber bumper on the swingarm and if necessary use a 10" crescent as leverage on the top of the new link to get the bolt hole lined up. Tighten all 3 bolts and remove the strap, that's it. Good luck. Quote
