Lower shock bush removal

[Deleted]

I've recently bought a new shock from Fowlers and have replaced a new lower bush plus the locking split bushes in on the older shock long before buying these new ones

The older shock has not been used as it was for my F1 resto

the question is how do I remove the two locking bushes without destroying them or the other brand new bush

Getting the frame and bits back from the coaters next week ans want to start the build

Thanks guys
Howard

Have you got a photo Howard? I cant visualise what youre asking, I thought the F2 shock fitted straight into the F1?

Ok, Howard and I have sorted this now I think. The F2 shock comes with the lower bush fitted, but not the upper collar. However that collar is still available from Yam for US$7.50ish.

Hi Jon

Thanks for the pics, the upper collar isnt an issue, I 've a few of them

I've now got to rummage through your haystack to find that bolt, I've come close but are 30mm long and don't have the two markings you want


That was just a quick scan from the top though

Thanks for helping with the search Howard. If you can find a 30mm version or even 35 then that would be ok I reckon as well, you cant see the back of it.
