April 1, 20215 yr First post I have visited the forum many times and try my best to research. I’m hoping someone can explain how I remove the springs from 97 JTX 270. Bike was given to me and I’m fitting it with stiffer springs. Getting the cartridge pulled out was a snap,but now I’m struggling to remove the actual springs. There was a tiny Allen bolt in the cap and I was wondering if that has something to do with it? Other though was the aluminum ring on the lower steel section. thanks Paul
April 1, 20215 yr Pull the spacer down at the top and you'll see that the top cap is screwed on and also held with a lock nut, there's a tool you can buy or make to hold the spring out of the way while you undo it.
April 1, 20215 yr Author Thanks so much. I guess I wasn't pulling it down far enough. Makes way more sense. Found this after your message. So everything makes sense now Edited April 1, 20215 yr by pRoy
