Got my complete RX Showa, ready for love.
Got the lighter weight spring standing by.
Can't figure out how to crack this thing open, to do, well, anything.. to it! :AR15firing:
PS not trying to send this out to anybody for a pro job that far exceeds value on my frankenbike. Any experience/advices appreciated!
Swapping on a spring is an easy task. A proper shock "re-build" can be done but takes enough specialty tools and parts to not make it worth the learning curve $$
I can accept that, Cooter, Thanks for discerning! So,
How do get the ^$#% spring out of there?

Thats one of the halves.
That looks nicer than a Ludwigson frame, NCCR?
and you better shut some of your toolbox drawers before that **** falls over, LOL.
OMG, Busted! :embarrassed:
^That's how I tinker.
THANKS for taking the time to so clearly lay that out, Cooter! I thought is was weird that there were no visible compression locker rings..! I'll get on it later on with fingers crossed it's that simple!
PS Daniel hasn't been the most responsive these days -- I'm rooting for Revision Moto to run w/ that design soon, though. I went w/ David's race-proven Bott frame. NCCR seems to require a bit more, erm.. skill.. than I likely have, at present, to get completed, plus, I can't find any examples of completed at-home projects either..

And for anybody who thinks this isn’t dangerous, one side came flying off, mid-torque, so.. yay, eye-protection! https://mail.google.com/mail/e/1f44d
