|  How to remove rear shock?
Noob question: How do I remove the rear shock from its lower mounting position? I have removed the screw that goes thru but the shock won't budge.  |

All you need is the right amount of force. Use a flat screwdriver and bend carefully upwards. Skickas från min iPhone via Tapatalk |

Thanks. I thought that it should just pop right out but wanted to be sure. Will try again with more force when I get back from work.

Tools needed: A good strong string Step ladder Broom stick Naked pictures of Bea Arthur Flat tip screw driver Acme anvil Trailing arm/stuck shock Instructions: Set up the step ladder, position the anvil atop the broom stick and atop the ladder. Then tie the string to the broom stick. Stand back and give the string a good tug. If positioned right the anvil should fall. Now mark the spot on the floor, if the anvil has not done it for you. Now set the anvil back atop the broom stick atop the ladder as you did before. Now position the trailing arm with the stuck shock on your mark with the flat tip driver in the pocket of the trailing arm, under the shock end. Back up pull the string and Whaaa Laa |
