Urgent Spring Install Help!
How do you remove the front spring and shock once you've unbolted the correct bolts (3 at the top and suspension yoke bolt)? I have all this don'e but I can't seem to get the thing loose. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

After you loosen those there are 2 more bolts at the bottom of the shock. one 14mm at the top of the fork and one 17mm bolt with a 17mm nut on the end of it. take those both off and then knock the fork down and push down on the caliper a little to separate the fork from the bottom of the shock. After just pull the shock out. it might be a little difficult. to make more room so the spring doesn't get stuck while your pulling it out you could lift up on the caliper. -CocotypeS

I figured it out...
I needed to remove the two strut brace screws at the top of the shock. So there are a total of 5 that need to be removed. 3 at 14mm and 2 at 12mm.
Thanks

Yea, but I either missed the part about the other two screws, or it wasn't included. I think your DIY manual was great, but I don't think you mentioned these screws. I could be wrong
