iconic558 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Is it possible to strip these shock and if so how?, I'm only interested in getting springs off to give them a clean and refinish the bodies. Many thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantic240motor Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 I presume you have the Betor type Sammy Miller steel shocks with black bodies? If so taking off the spring is very easy. Take the shock off the bike and clamp it in a vice upside down. Then pull down on the spring and the bottom collar will drop down. It has a slot in it that will let it come out past the damper rod. Handy if you have a friend to help but it is possible on your own. The spring will then slide off the end of the shock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
