Shock and fork spring compressor - Auckland

[kiwi-on-wheels]

Heya team, after spending some time with a mister Dave Moss on his suspension setting ride a few weeks back, it's become blatantly evident that my setup is woefully undersprung.

Soo, I'm getting new fork springs and shock spring. I'll be changing the fork oil at the same time for the front, but I don't have a spring compressor

Does anyone have a spring compressor I might be able to borrow or pinch for a couple of weeks? Will be ordering the springs in the next day or so.

Edit: I'm based in Auckland, cheers!!

Aiden at Restoace will swap shock springs for you. Fork spring compressor is easy to make, bit of tube and a couple of bolts.

Got a basic how-to handy on making the fork compressor @nzspokes?

Can't wait to get the new springs in, I'm currently 4 turns out on preload at the front, maxed preload in the rear and a couple of clicks left in rebound. Compression is nearly maxed too.

What shock spring rate and size do you need? I have a collection.

Pretty sure they wont work. They foul on the shock body.
