I've been looking to see how the linkage sits but have been having a hard time finding clear enough pictures from a top view. This is for a one off project I've been working on and I just have forgot how it's suppose to go. Any photos would be great.

Dang no one has a 03 620 they can take the seat off and snap a few pictures. I feel I've look threw just about all the threads looking for pictures but most of the ones I find are the hoop type rear end or single sided [bang].

All '02 and later DSS Monsters have the same rocker arrangement.
Even the SSS Monsters have the same rocker arrangement.

Specifically what are you looking for?

are you trying to figure out which way is up and which side is for the rod and which is for the shock?

Yes ^ that is what I'm trying to figure out. I've been out a couple of times to the dealer to take a look but for some reason I can't get a good look or picture of the orientation of the pivot arm.

ride height rod goes on the left side and goes forward, shock goes on the right side and is mostly straight up and down. The link goes "up", like a smile, not "down" like a frown.

The more "opened" hole is for the shock top mount, iirc.

it should pretty much be oriented like this, same as the SBK, but I want to double check in my garage later:
