Hi, I've just put the new rebuilt engine back in and can't seem to fit the shock back? I did have a sito+ on before but went back to a (new old one) stock exhaust. Any ideas? Am I missing anything silly? Thx.

Loosen the front engine mount bolt and Jack up the frame more so you can tilt the engine closer to the shock enough to jam it on and get the rear shock mount bolt in.

Also if you have the exhaust installed and the pipe is hitting the floorboard remove the pipe.
