Fork link bolt removal
Posted: Wed Mar 12, 2014 3:14 pm
Helping a lad out with a Series 2 resto and everything stripped down except I am having trouble getting his fork link bolts out. Have had them soaking in diesel for a week. Managed to get one to pop out by an eighth of an inch but no further using the socket in a vice technique. Have not tried heat yet but am having another go this afternoon, so the Rottenburger is coming out
Have got the bottom fork link rubber out of each fork leg and looking up at the inside there is a lot of rust around the bolts. Any other methods used??
