Shock linkage

[askmd]

Will a shock linkage (dog bone) from a 1986 ATC 250r fit on a 1986 trx 250r?

I TRIED A "DOG BONE" ONCE ON A TRX250R AND THE BOLT HOLE ON THE BOTTOM THAT BOLTS THRU THE SHOCK YOKE HAD A SMALLER DIAMETER HOLE. I JUST ASSUMED IT WAS OFF OF AN ATC.

NOT SURE IF YOU CAN JUST REPLACE THAT BUSHING IN THE "DOG BONE" TO RUN THE TRX250R BOLT.

HOPE THIS HELPS.
