    I found that a ratchet wrench works best on top nut.

    Default Call Len at PitBull Powersports 417-863-1418 for Elkas' set up for your ST, weight

    Left front top shock bolt is tight near air intake; push intake aside a little, piece of cake on rest of shock bolts.
    Of course jack Spyder ST up until a little weigh off tires, put in top shock bolts first, then slowly lower ST to line up bottom bolt.
    Tighten with 15mm wrench or socket.
    I like my Elka stage 5 front shocks for ease of adjusting high speed & low speed compression dampening, rebound, & for any adjustment needed (without having to send Elkas' back to factory for dampening changes).
    Elka stage 1+ works for rear shock. I suggest you buy a grade 8 hardened lower rear shock bolt, to replace lower stock shock bolt that bends.
    Len will set up your Elkas' spot on for your weight & riding style.
    Enjoy faster more stable corner speeds!!
