it is also hooked up to a round cylinder .must be a reservoir for one of the shock.but where does the end with the eye inlet go to ,cant figure it out .

The end of the eyelet should go into the bottom of the shock.

i guess that means the bolt backed out then .thank towerrigger.do you know the size of bolt needed thanks.

You have to pull the rear skid out Remove the shock and the cly and braided hose,check the shock for damage,If no damage then you will have to get your shock repaired/rebuild and recharged.Who ever rebuilds it will reattch the braided line.
