To prevent damage to the shock use aluminum soft jaws and position the eyelet in the vise so that the adjustment knobs are clear of the vise jaws.
Some mounting hardware is easily removed using only your fingers.
Try to remove the end spacers with your fingernail or small screwdriver,
then push the bushing pin out of the bushing. If this works, continue to
the next section.
If you are unable to remove the mounting hardware using your fingers,
use the RockShox® rear shock bushing removal/installation tool.
Thread the small end of the push pin onto the threaded rod until the
1
rod is flush or slightly protrudes from the hex-shaped end of the
push pin.
