We switched the shock and swingarm. The normal swingarm collars were to fat so we used thin washers of the same OD and ID. The shock mount on the top was opposite and required a longer bolt, spacers, and new nut. The old linkage attached fine to the shock, but wouldn't attach to the swingarm due to difference in bolt sizes. So we used some brass spacers found at the local hardware store. The front forks bolted straight up as long as you use a newer style wheel and axle. I'm pretty sure thats about all we did, but I finished that mod up about a year ago, so I'm not positive haha.

Good looking bike. What did you have to do to get the 03 crf450 shock to work?
