Hi boys I’m about to put my shock in my rear skid but the rear mount eye collar thats in there seems to be really loose. Don’t know of its normal or not

On yamaha they seem to list only the collar that goes inside the eye and bothing else So I don’t know whats it holding it in place in the eye mount.

Ohlins shock

If I remember right there should be a collar insert with roller bearings & then you slide your steel collar into that. Look inside of the rear collar tyo see if any of the bearing are missing.
 
Yes, the roller bearing that @TrueBlue mentions is similar to what is used in the control rod (pictured below). At least with the control rod, they list the bearing but not for the Ohlins shock:

Yes that I was thinking also because I changed them for the transfer rod before. Does anyone no if the transfer rod bearing will fit or they specific to the ohlins shock?
