Title: Rear shock strip

Hi , could somebody let me know the best way to remove the split collets on my rear shocks. I just need to remove the spring to spray the damper. Thank in advance

There is a special tool for compressing the spring if you look at service sheet No. 313 it shows you a picture of it in use. If you are handy it is quite easy to make one. A copy of the service sheet can be found in the library service sheets in the members section

Bob, excuse me for being a little thick here. But I've looked in the service sheets in the members area under unit twins and there doesn't appear to be a sheet 313

I got one off flea bay £18 if you are in Kent and times where different you would be welcome to a lend.
