Looking at the docs at the bottom of the page

Service manual – 2020/2021 Fuel EX

When you go to the suspension linkages, specifically the rocker, it implies that parts 12 are on the outside of the bearing. So between the bolt head and the bearing on one side and between the spacer and the bearing on the other side

However I'm 100% convinced that's incorrect and the spacers sit between the frame and the rocker linkage?

But I can't actually find a picture that represents it correctly.

I was cleaning my linkages earlier and took it all apart and the 2 spacers didn't fall out until I moved the rocker out of the way.

I've also got a mates ex8 ALU version, 2020 here and his looks to have the spacers between frame and rocker arm.

Add to that, it shows the mino link spacers incorrectly too surely??

Am I going insane?
