  1. I know this is an old thread, but I am having the same problem with my new to me 2013 3.0. I just replaced the all of the linkage bearings, upper and lower shock joints, and put new DU/plain bushings into the dog bones and I still have a good bit of play in the rear end.....so the same situation quite a few people have been in. All felt good on final assembly, except for the DU bushings in the dog bones. I come from and mountain bike background, and we use DU bushings in the upper and lower shock eyelets of our bikes. Once the DU bushing is pressed in, the collars take a good bit of effort to get in also. When I went to put the collar in for my Sherco, it literally fell out the other side. I also noticed that was where the visiable play was coming from on the rear end. I did not order new collars, and i was told the collars is not the wear item, the DU bushing is. So my though it is, should I try ordering new collars and see if they fit tighter, or if the new collar has the same result, maybe taking the dogbones with the bushings installed to a machinist and have them possibly machine a better fitting collar? Any thoughts to that?
