09 UC rear shock change question.
Im about to put the profile low rear shocks from HD and asking to see if there is anything unusual or any tips to installing them. I have a motorcycle jack and torque wrench. Any help or advice would be great. Ride safe. thanks

Be careful not to tip the shock after removal/before install if the plug is removed. The shock oil will drain out. I did one side at a time, so the swing arm didn't drop. Bleed all the air out before removing old shocks.

When I changed my shocks, I used a floor jack under the rear wheel to make adjustments so the bolt holes will line up. I changed one shock at a time but because one shock is longer than the other one, the bolt holes were difficult to line up.
