Thanks to Stefan Appelgren over at R&D Husqvarna/Australia, we have a link to a detailed installation of the HL2 link on the 2006-up Husqvarna TE610: http://www.offroadexplorer.com/ORE_Garage/Technical/KoubaLink.html

The first picture below shows the spring to swingarm clearance with the stock links on some of the Husky models, if your bike has only the clearance shown below with the swingarm fully extended then the spring and/or swingarm tunnel will have to be filed. When using the HL1 link, approx 1/8 inch more clearance is required.  When using the HL2 link, 1/4 inch more clearance is required.   *Sometimes the shock spring and spring retainer can be rotated a few degress to get maximum clearance.  If your bike has 1/2 inch plus more clearance than shown below then filing the swingarm or spring should not be required.

Thanks Mark Compton for the picture above of his 05 TE510 with stock links.

The picture below is an 06 TE250 with the HL2 link installed showing the shock clevis hitting the rocker and not allowing the bottom shock mount eyes to align when the swingarm is fully extended.  A reply from a customer is below this picture with a description of what has to be done to gain the clearance requirements.

I finally installed the HL-2 lowering link, and as you mentioned, there was a need to machine the tunnel. Easily accomplished with a dremel and coarse sanding barrels. Also, there was a need to machine the rocker at the lower shock clevis impact point. I have not had a chance to ride the bike yet but I remain confident that I can maintain the right geometry with the front end.  Fortunately, this era of Huskys responds well to the front end being pushed out slightly to increase stability.  I will keep you posted on my impressions.
