swinger hardware sizes

Hi guys.
Just a quicker, I've just won the 6 way coil swinger that Willie_B from here was selling on the bay.
Yippee finally free from J6 crappy and unreliable nr4 services.
To help me get it on my bike ASAP I'd like to order the fitting hardware before Tue shock arrives.
Can one of you swinger users tell me the sizes of the adapters I need to mount it on my 5500 please?
Thanks in advance.
Luke

I'm not 100% sure of this but I don't believe that bushings are available to mate the swinger to a K2 frame. From what i have been told, those who are using them had to have the bushings made.

Oh.
Well even if I can't order them off the shelf, someone must have the dimensions, so I can get ahead on the order.
All I need is the diameter and width of the eye. I've got the bike.

If you measure the width of your stock shock bushings, you will have your answer. Unless I don't understand what you are asking.

There is an Ebay seller that does bushings. I bought mine direct from Manitou before they sold out.
I can measure my bushings and post for you.
Just give me some time. Hope I can get it in time.

Hi Luke.
Ok, Frame mounts use 6mm x 38mm. bushings as seen in this Ebay listing.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Manitou-Rear-Shock-Bushing-Hardware-6-0-x-38-/220653209887?pt=Cycling_Parts_Accessories&hash=item335ff4c91f
Swingarm mount uses 6mm x 24mm bushing as seen in this Ebay listing.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Manitou-Rear-Shock-Bushing-Hardware-6-0-x-24-/270703391842?pt=Cycling_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f072df462
Mine are solid alum but the shaft type listed here work just the same. The diameter of the hole in shock is 12mm. The width of the shock is approx 13mm.
If you want a breakdown of the 2 piece solid alum bushings, let me know. Or you could just give this info to your manitou dealer and they will order them for you.
