[QUOTE="FJReady, post: 837249, member: 465"] raptorman, I recommend you get on over to www.cheapcycleparts.com and look in the OEM parts section. you'll be able to drill down to the FJR suspension bits and you'll discover that you want 4 bearings (2 each of 2 different part numbers), two sleeves and eight oil seals. If you want to be totally wild, replace the two swing arm bearings where the top of the dogbones go. If you've never done this before, be prepared to spend some time in there. Like half a day minimum. I also recommend you check out www.fjr1300.info and www.fjr-tips.org for good instruction. Also some grat advice just posted here: [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=136188"]rear suspension lube[/URL] I didn't know about the trick where you remove all exhaust mounting bolts downstream of the engine. sounds like a good idea. It will take a week (maybe more) to get your bearings, etc from cheapcycle parts. plan accordingly. [/QUOTE]
