You will need to use an allen wrench or hex driver and unscrew the pivot ball from the a arm. then remove the wheel hex and pin behind it, unscrew the turnbuckle from the carrier and thats it.

Need to buy a new axle Carrier It's broken and missin plastic it will just pull back out if you try to put it back together with it broken like that.

Whats wrong with the shocks?

Whats wrong with the shocks?

if u look closely at one of the shocks, the plastic bottom part shattered.

btw this middle part of the axle carrier is really hard to remove! i got everything unscrewed except for the middle part seen in the pics

the wheel hub should just slide off and theres a pin behind it that just slides right out then the axle should just slide ride out of the bearings.

All you need is a new spring retainer, the rest of the shock looks fine.

remove which one? i apologize for the noob questions, I'm just not good with tinkering with tools

 

[Bkyd Basher]

I believe C should slide off the shaft.and theres a pin behind c through the shaft, which just should slide right out after C is off.Then the carrier should slide right out through the bearing.C doesn't screw off of the threads on the axle.

C is for cookie! Wouldn't let me just post "C".
