Question Anyone know about.....?

Just posted this on tuning & tweaking.

Fitting my lowers today, the lower right side engine bolt, to the rear is the problem.

On the left side it has the special Suzuki castelated thrust spacer, on the right side, the side I want to loosen it has a flanged nut. It's similar setup to the mid engine mount. One big through rod, threaded both ends, with securing nuts.

The manual says you need the special Suzuki tool on the left hand side, but nothing about the right. It's also on as tight as a "fill in the blank here"

Has anyone got experience of this? Thanks peeps.

Cheers

on the lowers you should be able to fit them without the tool, if you go onto ebay you can buy the tool.

Cheers Scott.

Looks like a good skoosh of WD40 and the universal bar then

Hopefully get them done today/tomorrow. Few other things on the go.

I'll get a photo up when complete.

Thanks again.
