trialscot Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 The lugs on the three cornered bracket on a 2003 290 , that bolt onto the bottom of the rear shock, have snapped off. What holds this bracket onto the swinging arm?. There seems to be a sleeve right through but I can't see how it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan bechard Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 Hmmm, that sleeve right through should just slide out, but I have a feeling if it has broken the delta link, there may be more problems. http://www.rypusa.com/sherco/manuals/Sherc...ation_Guide.pdf This should give you some pictures to look at around the dog bones and such. I hope you get it sorted. Let me know if you need specifics, I can take pictures or whatever, or explain in more detail if I was sure what you were working. I think Wayne's book pretty much has it all nailed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialscot Posted February 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 Thanks Alan, At a quick first look I thought the sleeve went right through the delta link and the swinging arm but reference to the RYP parts book showed otherwise, so a sharp application of the Birmingham screwdriver was all that was required. The link was just squeezed a little and gripping onto the swinging arm. I reckon the rider hadn't torqued up the Allen bolt at the lower shock mount enough, the bolt unscrewed and all the weight went onto one lug of the delta which snapped off. Thanks again, I hope everyone who asks the trialscentral gurus for advice appreciates just how invaluable they really are. I'm sure we love you all (but not in a gay way!).
