So I just recieved my JRI shock and tried to install last night and ran into a problem. The JRI shock is about 7mm bigger in Dia at the top of the shock than the stock one. This is not allowing the top of the shock eye and frame mount hole to line up enough to get the bolt in.

Has anyone run into a simalar problem fitting shocks?

Thanks,
Doug

Is this shock specifically designed for the 250? If so, call them and tell them your situation. I don't know the design of their shocks so I can't comment any further.

Yep...Talked to Tim at JRI, and we figured out that the body cap on the one he sent me was the wrong length. Sending me out a new shock. Great customer service from JRI. :thumbup:

I heard JRI laid off practically their entire staff. Guess they will have everything built in China now.

This is the first I have heard of this company
( but I am only a year & a half with ninja )

Can you say roughly what these go for?
Is it this model you bought?
Their site does not list prices
Thanks
