The film long, but very accurate and detailed step-by-step! Polubcie and subskrybujcie my channel of guides and skomentujcie movie.
The first time I changed the front fork and decided to create the best, most accurate step-by-step guide for anyone who wants to learn to replace the shock absorber. I am convinced that with this guide NOBODY will have no problem with the exchange, even complete novice handyman.
Necessary tools and materials:
1. Combination wrenches or 19, 2x 18, 9 (mega facilitation is to have / borrow 12V electric impact wrench or pneumatic capping), it is advisable to have these keys, especially 18 in the long version or with extension, we recommend having
CR-V keys - chrome vanadium, are very strong, usually cheap may break!
2.
Key to tires, preferably telescopic, because nobody knows how hard you have tightened wheel!
3.
WD40 to facilitate unscrewing nuts
4.
Vehicle jack hydraulic or manual, at least 1, but you should have two to pick up the swingarm
5. wedges, bricks or wooden blocks for locking the rear wheels 4 pieces
6.
Kobylka, blocks of wood or brick to be placed on their car at the time of installation
7. New shock absorbers, pillows, bumpers, bearings.
8.
Pliers
9. Strippers for springs, 2 pieces
10. Wrench (recommended but not required), I still did not earn, but who knows soon.
The steps of the procedure (in great detail), I recommend to see an instructional video on my
YouTube channel "ForumWiedzy.pl" that shows you everything step by step:
