Special wrench for triple tree?
« on: October 14, 2009, 09:25:00 AM »
Do I need a special tool to remove the entire triple tree from the frame? I think I have heard some call it a spanner. I think it is c-shaped at the end. Is this correct?

I used a flat head screwdriver and a rubber mallet.  ;D

You can also use a shock pre-load adjusting wrench.
