11. Install the Shock:

• Begin by lifting the rear of the bike to take the weight off the rear tire. This will allow you to remove the shock bolts without pressure.

• Remove the lower shock bolts from both sides of the swingarm.

• Once the shock bolts are removed, lift the rear of the bike slightly more to allow the swingarm to droop about 2 inches lower than the position held by the shocks.

• Take the symmetrical lift block for the drive side.
• Install the block with the flat side facing the wheel.
• The recessed pocket of the block should fit over the factory shock eyelet on the swingarm.
• Attach the block with the supplied bolt:
• Bolt head facing the outside of the bike.
• Nut to the inside of the swingarm.

• Install the second block on the brake side in the same orientation as the drive side.
• For this side, the lower mounting hole will be threaded.
• Attach the block with the fully threaded bolt, placing the nut to the inside of the swingarm.

• Lower the bike until the lower shock eye lines up with the upper hole in the lift blocks.

• Install the supplied bolts with:
• Bolt head facing the outside of the bike.
• Nut to the inside of the swingarm.

• Once all hardware is installed, torque the bolts to 45 ft/lbs.

• After the first 100 miles of riding, it is recommended to re-torque the mounting bolts to ensure they are securely tightened.

For 05 & Earlier Kit:

• Attach the lift blocks to the swingarm using the supplied button head bolts. For this kit:
• Bolt heads face the inside of the swingarm.
• Nuts go to the outside.

• The shock will attach to the block using the taper head bolt. Ensure that the head of this bolt sits in the countersink of the block. This is crucial for clearance, as it allows the bolt head to avoid interference with the pulley or brake rotor.

By following these steps for either the 06 & up kit or the 05 & earlier kit, you should be able to install the lift blocks and adjust the swingarm as needed for the modification.
