Yz 125 shock is stiff

I took off the shock and all these pins came out. And also when I pick up The back tire it goes up a little bit and then it stops and starts making a grinding noise

You'll have to install a new bearing (all those pins). Normal to fall apart when you remove the pin/bushing.
The binding is coming from the swing arm then. Possibly more bearings to replace where the swing arm mounts to the frame. Any Photos? -BIG DAN:thumb:

Can you find a link to the bearings and stuff that I'm going to need to buy. It's an 01 yz 125

Aside from having my suspension set up for my weight and style, This was the most expensive thing I ever did to my bike. I bought the same exact kits and couldn't be happier with the performance.

Probably $120 bucks here. Worth every penny, especially if you are having suspension issues.

You have the shock off the bike?
The swing arm won't move up?
It can only be the bearings. Unless the chain is too tight.
