[QUOTE="mattster31, post: 837320, member: 12073"] Are you sure the bearings are gone?? That seems rather bizarre for those bearings to wear out with such low miles. I just cleaned and greased my linkage (2003 with 105K). I will say the bearing that sits directly under the shock was a bit dry but there was no pitting etc... As for the "play" you describe, did you check this before or after the bolts were tightened to spec? Once everything is tight there should only be 2-3mm (max) of vertical play in the swingarm (zero lateral). [/QUOTE]
