The stainless bolt kits,have a lower torque setting than the stock bolts.Like Puma said,the case and case cover bolts should be torqued to 5,no more than 6.

JohnnyFive,
 I just went out and measured my dogbones and I too was running the 6 3/4 dogbone before I switched to the LRD dogbone. If your linkage was hitting the swingarm then you obviously had the wrong dogbone on there. What year is your frame, because the LRD dogbones were made for the 88/89 bikes. When you say that you were a half inch longer from the linkage mount to the dogbone mount then your bros bike. Do you mean the dogbone mount on your swingarm? Could you guys possibly have different swingarms or you may have just been running the wrong dogbone. If the LRD Dogbone fixed all your problems then I'd just run that dogbone!!!
 Thanks Higgy
I was running the 88 89 dogbone which is 6in
.That's when the linkage bolts hit.So I put the lrd dog bone on tonight and now it doesn't.So ya I think that's what I need to run.It turns out that the linkage mount on the sits back a half an inch further toward the motor than the oem frame.

What up Johnny Five,
 I'm running the elusive LRD Dogbone if I remember there's a little difference between the 2 dogbones one is just a little longer then the other, but I figured if its an LRD DogBone it should probably be ran on this LRD Bike!! Coincidentally I just might know where to find I just might know where to get you one brand new LRD Dogbone if ur interested?
Thanks Higgy

Ya,i already have the dog bone,but thinks anyway.It turns out the 88`89 dog bone is 6in eye to eye.The lrd is 6.5 and i think the 86`87 is 6 and three quarters.Ive been running the 88`89 on a pep zps and its never been right.It turns out theres a discrepensie in in my frame compared to my brothers stock 89 frame.Ive been doing some measurements to get a rear shock built fro Andy,i was half an inch longer from my linkage mount to the dogbone mount than my bros frame.Which in turn wouldnt allow my frame sit an inch and half off the ground.The bolts from the linkage would come up and hit the bottom of the swingarm.So i just tried putting on the lrd one to see if it would help and it did.Anyway the bike looks forkin awesome.Will have to meet up down there at winchester or spinreel sometime soon.

Hey Higgy,What's cracking?The builds looking harass!We've talked a few years ago.I'm the guy that was doing a attitude build as well.What are you running for the linkage?86-87 dogbone 88-89 dog bone or the elusive lrd dogbone( lol) ?Curious, because I'm trying to get a rear shock set up and exploring my options?Any hell would be much appreciated.
