Still having a nightmare getting this pivot out. Did you really have to force those pinch bolts apart?

Re: 2011 msc f5 unsuccessful repair (update)

Not force them apart no

Re: 2011 msc f5 unsuccessful repair (update)

hi mate, just had my frame welded (eventually) still a couple of things wrong, the bearings are rusted solid onto those red pin things. tried welding a tube on to expand them and everything haha.

if youre frame is just wall art now, would you be willing to sell a few bits and bobs from it?

I also need the m10 bolt that goes through the shock and the pivot links ( mine is badly bent)

cheers again for youre help !
