I bought a rear shock for my M2 online. The new shock has a reservoir and came with a t-bolt clamp and hose clamp. Can some show me pictures of how this mounts to the front shock bracket or describe the mounting. Thanks

The T-bolt clamp goes on the front end of the reservoir with the bolt going thru the mount bracket.

Hose clamp goes at the rear end and around the oil pump fitting.

There should be a hourglass shaped rubber bushing between the fitting and the reservoir.

I have the installation instructions in a .pdf at home. It includes diagrams and pictures. PM me if you want them. Jramsey gave a good description for what you asked.

Thanks for the info. The kit came with everything but the hour glass piece of rubber, but I think I can make something. Thirty thousand on the old shock and it was getting spongy, hopefully this brings back good feel in the corners.
