    I sheered my driver side rear shock on a trail last weekend. When trying to install the replacement, I ran into issues trying to line the eyelet up with the axle shock mount.
    From some posts I’ve read about other PN 2.0s, the bushing/eyelet isn’t the correct size and the shock will come with different size. I didn’t receive a second sized bushing with my shock.
    Has anybody else ran into issues installing this PN? Pictures below, my first thought is to try and remove the bushing from the old shock and install on the replacement. Maybe grind the eyelet down on the new to fit.
    thanks!

    I was just helping you on Reddit lol.

    Like I mentioned there, you could probably just grind both sides to make it fit. But the bigger question is why doesn't it fit already.

    That PN shows a 12" universal fit shock. Usually people only run 12" shocks with spring-under mid-travel setups.

    You said you were on blocks in the rear... Does this mean you are still running a factory leaf pack? Do you have relocation brackets and extended brake lines too?
