.060 Over
Hey, I need to remove the rear shock in order to spray paint over the scratch damage you see in the photo below. It's the rear left side panel, and also right. Right now the quick release sissy bar is in front, but to take off that panel I need to take off the shocks.
I do have this manual lift, and I actually used it to left the bike to install the quick release brackets, but I barely lifted the wheel, like I only lifted it maybe two inches. My question:
1) For the shocks do I have to lift the bike any higher to take them off, or the wheel just has to be off the ground by a little?
2) If I take off both shocks and the bumper screws, will the bumper screws on the side, will the bumper completely fall off? If that's the case, should I do one side at a time?
I have this lift here:
Any advice helps, still learning.
Best,
Budda
