Undo bolts as per instructions, empty oil, all ok, BUT cant get the cartidge out, the bottom bolt just spins, I have held the push rod of the cartrige but it still just spins, sound like the bottom part of the cartridge is spinning too.

Any Ideas?????????????

Had this same issue with my NSR Fork's but all the spring and the tube ( if you have one ) put the top back on the fork, all the way in as far as it will go, get a impact gun and slowly blip the gun and it should come out.

if that doesnt work if you have some sort of pole and put it down to stop it spinning Thumbs Up

Hope this helps

Matt
