Banshee~ Posted March 25, 2005 Report Posted March 25, 2005 Do I need spring pullers to pull these pipe springs...there bitches to get off stock pipes beacuse everythings so cluttered up. Trying to save $13 Quote
BenBB Posted March 25, 2005 Report Posted March 25, 2005 No you don't, I just bent up a coathanger and yank 'em off with that (just a long "U" shape, catch the spring hook at the end of the U and pull it off, works great). Quote
superdave Posted March 25, 2005 Report Posted March 25, 2005 coathangers work great..., but so do the spring pullers....I have used both, but I always try to use the right tool for the job. Just a thought. D Quote

MotulMonsta Posted March 27, 2005 Report Posted March 27, 2005 A flathead screwdriver is all I need..that and 5 min of my life. Presto all 4 springs changed and ready to roll. Time fer a beer or two..or three..or Hic..shit ready to ride now! Quote

MILO Posted March 28, 2005 Report Posted March 28, 2005 yeah man, visegrips or a good pair of channel locks Quote
CowboyBanshee Posted March 28, 2005 Report Posted March 28, 2005 vise grips and a bud light usually do the trick for me Quote
fixitrod Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 You can cut a slit in the side of a flathead screwdriver at an upward angle. Voila, a spring puller. I use a phillips screwdriver to put them on and take them off. The spring doesn't have anything to catch on while sliding to the hole on the pipe. Quote
fast500#12 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 i bought one after years of the screwdriver method and was pissed that i didn't buy one sooner because it was soooooo much easier to take them off and put the on 30 seconds tops for all 4. i only payed 5 buck though. highly recomend Quote
Ducman Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Fixitrod has it. Take a dremmel w/ cut off wheel, steel an old junky flat head screwdriver out of your dads tool/junk drawer, and put a slit in it to make a hook. Quote
