noodels Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 treat as your just fitting a standard set up ,maybe worth trying to loosen things b4 work comences and you are fully commited >> but as above the front/ rear lower shocks bolts being main issues to be looked at first correct front socket for hub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbaybeeraver23 Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 what do you mean by the issue with the bolts?. when it comes to the rear i am doing the aformentioned shocks, newe shiny purple lca's, new shiny lower tie bar and shall be betting new bushes all round, so am i going to need new bolts aswell?. if so can someone link me up, and if they are feeling really nice, could you link me up some bush kits worth investing in? so when it comes to it, its a straight swaop with these or will i need more parts?

NIKH25 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Straight swap, noodles is suggesting making sure all bolts will come undone before you do the entire job, i.e. one shock changed other side seized. Rear fork bolts can be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
