Hassler Schocks and Rear axle disassembly
I genuinely don’t know how to remove the Hassler shocks from my rear axle. I finally finished the front axle and now im on the rear axle. I really can’t disassemble the rear clean until I get the spring assembly off. I don’t know if I have the tools to do so since I got this from a third party completely disassembled and h some Hassler parts missing. What should I do?

Re: Hassler Schocks and Rear axle disassembly
it takes a threaded T rod to relieve the spring pressure. I would suggest you order a copy of the original Hassler instructions from one of the T parts vendors. Once you see how to do it, you can make the necessary tool.

Re: Hassler Schocks and Rear axle disassembly
Thanks guys I ended using a bolt, three washers, and a nut to build the tool. The spring came off like a charm and have now finished cleaning up the rear axle spring and all the hassled parts.
Cheers.
