jazz1 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Cut the rivet that holds them together, then you can use a small bolt to fix them together after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 Do you mean the big rivet that goes through the centre of the spring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Hey you will have to figure it out from this picture. As Simon done mine, due to previous body shop did not know etc. That's the information I was provided, as above. This was a set done by Simon.

Big Mark Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 I can't see any obvious difference to how mine are now. Big rivet is still in place too so no idea. I'll sleep on it and figure it out tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

214supra Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 This is how I done mine. Refit with super glue on both end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted July 25, 2017 Author Share Posted July 25, 2017 Thanks I thought that was the part that needed to be removed, tho I think I might see if I can bolt it all back together using a Nyloc nut rather than relying on superglue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Yes you have to cut the rivet out, no other way. My father in law made me a custom bolt to put it back together, basically just a turned down bolt which was then threaded as the hole in the thread end is smaller than the start of it. if that makes sense.

Big Mark Posted July 25, 2017 Author Share Posted July 25, 2017 Thanks Ric, Did your father-in-law tap a thread into the handle or just use a but to secure the turned down bolt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
