Damper Rod Bolt Advice
#5
(26-08-14, 10:08 PM)Dead Eye link Wrote:I had an absolute nightmare of a time getting mine off. In the end I bought a broom handle and soaked one end in water (increases the friction) - stuffed this in to hold the damper in place, forced as much of my weight as possible on to the fork whilst using a socket wrench to undo the bolt. It worked eventually, but took me a good 2 or 3 days as I kept getting annoyed and frustrated so kept walking off and trying to come up with another idea... I even tried using an impact driver borrowed from a fellow foccer with no result Sad

+1 for this. I use a broom handle and shave the end into a wedge - like cheese - and stuff that in to stop the rod turning. Also use a 12v impact driver and nut came off in seconds. Only problem is explaining a fkdup broom handle to the angry wife
Three lefts make a right
