I've ran into a problem. I'm installing a 10 over swingarm. While trying to bolt everything back up I broke my shock because of putting pressure against the swingarm while trying to get all the bolts to line up. I have a new shock now. I was told I could use all stock parts besides needing a extended brake line and new chain. Well, I can't get the bolts to line up. Either I get 2 sets in the pivot that attaches by the dogbones, one to the frame and one to the shock but not dogbones, or dogbones and the shock but not the frame, etc. My factory swingarm hole (where the shock goes through) has a 6" opening. The extnded swingarm only a 5". So I can't get the shock attached to both upper and lower w/out it being flush against the swingarm. Do you have to get longer dogbones to use a extended swingarm? That's the only solution I see to be able to line all the bolts up. Or could it be the shop that did the extended swingarm either sent me the wrong one or didn't make it right dimensions? It looked exactly like the pic that was installed on a Gen1. Mine is an 07'. Either way I am at a loss... Longer dogbones=lowering??? I need my dogbones to be around an inch or so longer to make it work. Anyone else have this prob????
