Shock removal question
Getting everything ready to remove the rear shocks on 06 Fat Boy to install the Shotgun I got from JD. Went over all the info in my manual to remove it and it stated I need part #SRES24 to do it. Anyone know what this part is? Can't find part on H.D. website. Whatever it is, do I even need it? Thanks...

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=...adapter+sres24 Here's what it looks like. It's an adapter that allows you to use your torque wrench on the shock mounting bolts.

That tool is essentially a way to be able to torque the shock bolts. You can't really get a torque wrench in there to do it easily, so this tool basically extends the adjustment point down enough for you to get a torque wrench on it.

I did not use it when I did the shot gun on my 06. I do check to make sure they are tight a few times a season though. Get a heat gun or good hair dryer to help break those shoulder bolts loose. Pretty simple to do. Taping the hole for the compressor took the most time.

That tool looks like a crows foot adapter. I found the best thing to use is a 3/4" wratchet wrench so it fits and you don't have to keep moving the wrench. I heated the flange bolts with a regular propane torch and they came out, took some force but it worked
