[QUOTE="David Trustrum, post: 89737, member: 21529"] Well I’m glad this finally got some comment. Wanna know the other way to cut a shock spring? (& this is second hand I admit) wedge the spring over a bucket of water & heat the point (using oxy/acetylene) you want cut to red then turn the gas off & leave the oxygen on & the wire will keep burning right through. Then you bend the spring end even more gently. Make up a preload spacer & you’re done. Yes watch the coil bind. & Si if you were going to buy new springs what’s the danger? PS Auckland & wgtn shops do put a hideous mark up on everything. Sometimes it’s cheaper to find a good rural shop & get them to freight it. I get all my Kawasaki bits down from Ingram & Worsely, they have a website off silver bullet. Like the hose clamp idea, very bush! A number 8 fencing wire job we'd call it here. But hey if it works -a good way of testing!! [/QUOTE]
