Hi Chaps,

Had a minor nightmare this morning, trying to remove the shock from my Mojo SL.

I've removed the two small 4mm bolts from the top of the shock, and the 8mm bolt from the bottom, the bottom comes out easy. But the top looks like it has a pivot rod through it, and wont come out...

any ideas?

Cheers

Ricks

I did think that, but it is tightly in there. I threaded one of the bolt in about 3 thread, and had a quick bang with a hammer - but didn't want to force it just in case it's not the right thing to do....

Just got an email back from 2Pure. Exactly the case, pop one of the bolts in and drift the pivot rod out. Recommended using a longer 4mm bolt, as the ones in the frame are about 5mm long, and will eventually bottom out.

Thought that'd be the case
