So after a week of dusty riding I've noticed a lot of noise coming from the linkages on my boot'r.
I was wondering what the best way is to get rid of this noise/clean the pivots.

Also there is a bit of play where the shock mounts onto the bike, how easy would this be to fix? Replace the shock DU? Its a fox Van R

Yeah, try replacing the DU (eye) bushings.
Then if there's still some play, the reducers may need replacing too.

I have the same issue on my Glory DH and there is play in the bushings on the Fox DHX 5.0 shock. Can anyone tell me where to get new bushings for it?
