Finally I can upload a photo demonstrating what I meant at the beginning of the post. You can clearly see where the bottom coil had been rubbing on the swing arm. I’ve since resolved the issue by subtly grinding a flat spot in the bottom coil to give adequate clearance. Its only a tiny bit but its enough without compromising the integrity of anything. All is good now with all of the linkages etc cleaned, regreased and reinstalled.
Good job bro. It looks like the bottom of the spring was also hitting the swingarm. It looks a bit grazed & rusted. Good thing you found that issue – would’ve made for a horrible ride & pretty unsafe. I been looking at mine just to be sure i’m ok. 😀
