leveling links

I bought the Diamond R leveling links and they came in over the weekend. me and my Buddy put them on last night. Yes they make a big difference at slow speeds and cornering. i have 1 comment and 1 question. 1st comment, We didnt need to lift the bike. what we did was use a floor jack and put it under the bottom of the shock mount (i think that what its called). to relieve the pressure of off the shock. Then unbolted and removed and replaced the links. It took 45 minutes to do and 20-30 was figuring if we indeed had to lift the bike. All worked out good though. 2nd the question, the instructions said something to the effect of links bolt torque at 36 ft lbs but their it also talks about the top of the shock bolt. can sombody clear this up? Do both of the link bolt torque to the same 36 lbs? Thanks and to anyone wonder why the bike wobbles at slow speed either make the link or buy them from Diamond R ( i say to buy them cause then you have more riding time and they do make a quality product)

Thank Freebird for the info in the tech library.

Ventureblue,

I would think that yes, both bolts are torqued to 36 ft lbs

You could send Double D, or Squidley, or even Dimaon R an email and ask them.

One of them would know for sure.

Someone might chime in here soon....with the answer your looking for bud.

See pic...hope this helps !
