Assembly / Installation
1. Lubricate and install bushing (6) in left side of swingarm and two-piece bushings (3) in right side.
2. Clean threads of nut (1), pivot bolts (5) and (8), and pivot bushings (4) and (7) with Loctite Primer T or
Primer N. Apply Loctite 272 to threads of pivot bushing (4) and nut (1).
3. Install right pivot bushing (4) through the two-piece bushing (3).
4. Install washer (2) and nut (1). Hold pivot bushing (4) in vise and torque nut (1) to 150 ft. lbs. (207 Nm).
5. Install left pivot bushing (7).
Note: There are stop plates attached to the inside of the frame to prevent the pivot bushings from turning
when the pivot bolts are tightened. The flats of the pivot bushings must be oriented correctly to align with
the frame plate, or the pivot bolt holes will not be aligned. The top flat on the nut should be approximately
parallel with top surface of the swingarm.
6. Install swingarm assembly in frame.
7. Apply Loctite 272 to threads of pivot bolts (5 and 8). Install and tighten pivot bolts slowly until the flats of
the pivot bushings (4) and (7) engage the stop plate on the frame.
8. Torque pivot bolts (5) and (8) to 150 ft. lbs. (207 Nm).
9. Install lower rear shock bolt. Torque to 25 ft. lbs. (35 Nm). Assemble rear axle, brake caliper, caliper
