removing suspenstion spring thingy?

[niko]

Ive just got myself some timbersled alloy brackets to put on my apex and just looking at the top idle wheels i see a large spring just behind the wheels now how do i remove it without it going flying across the room? I looks like its under alot of tension. Do i just remove the wheel and hope for the best?
Theres nothing in the manual on how to remove them?????


cheers ,

Hey niko how's it going! You don't have to take the spring out. Just suspend the rear and remove the bolt. You'll see a 1 1/4" long spacer that's held with an allen screw. Hope this helps.

All good here mate, been riding around the back of northstar and on the fiberboard most arvos.
So you recon i can just remove the wheels without the spring going "boing" i'll give it a go.
