I've just installed some off set bushings on my five. Now the holes on the bushings have to face inwards towards the shock to slacken head angle, but how do you know if you have holes in the exact place?
When inserting the shock and bushes back into frame mounts, the bushings tend to move/swivel a bit as it is a tight fit, so once lined up with frame mount you do not actually know if the bushing holes are in the exact place they should be.
Hope the above makes sense. Is there a correct way of ensuring holes are in correct place?
I thought the same thing when I put mine in.
The hardware rotates in the bush with no pressure? Sounds a tad loose...
Just bounce up and down a bit on the bike before you tighten the mounting bolts up.
It'll naturaly go to the right position.

Can't see how this would work??
They naturally rotate to being parallel with the line of force
Ahh ok, that sounds like a plan. Thanks
