hey guys,
i got myself a new rear shock and linkage for my 05 450r and plan on putting her on in a few days. its my first time upgrading suspension so im just wondering if there are any tips or tricks to make the installation easier?? just from a quick look it seems like its pretty tight back there.....if anyone wants to give me a quick little step by step thatd be awsome.

thanks alot

ummm you have to take the seat off.

You might want to take the rear plastic off and put the atv on jacks to take the weight off the rear spring.

When you go to reinstall put grease on both bolts and locktight the nuts.

Its really easy.
