Help!!!!

goofygamer · 12-05-2007, 10:20 PM

I just tried installing the cable bushings and for some reason, it wouldn't go in smoothly. So, my smart-self went on and tried to force it in. Now it's stuck in the cable hole thingy where you insert the bushings into. What can I do?!? PLEASE HELP!! I tried using a hammer and a flat head, but that does not seem to work. HELP!!

Nobody knows of any alternatives to get the new bushings out so I can put it on again all over?

did u hit it hard coz the clutch linkage looks like its bent... make sure you put something hard on the other side of the linkage and hit it hard.

goofygamer · 12-05-2007, 10:53 PM

Is there any other way because I am having trouble with both the big and the small bushings. Are there anything else?

yoyosupmang · 12-05-2007, 11:03 PM

haha...First off you have it backwards. The wider part is supposed to be on the other side. I too had a problem but mines was on the big one. I bought corsport bushings though. Now im riding with a inclined linkage with the bushing only 1 cm off from being in. I just bought the twm bushings and soon going to take out the corsport. Yea most people say take out the bolts holding the linkage thingy so you can put the bushing straight in. Advice for getting the bushing out is try to ice pack it. I did it first time and it worked. I put new ice every time it melted in a bag over the bushing and it actually shrunk a little. Took me 2 hours though ugh. Next time you put the bushing in, put it in the freezer for 2 hours. It should slide right in

How do I take out the bolts holding the linkage? any pics?

goofygamer · 12-05-2007, 11:09 PM

Iluvmycsx, do you have any idea on how to fix this?

BATANG CITY JAIL · 12-05-2007, 11:19 PM

^^ yoyo supmang is right... u have it backwards..the wider part should go inside and the part where the C clip should be sitting outside for locking...

Yeah, I know that. My cousin accidentally installed it wrong, and I am trying to take the cable linkage out so I can just hammer the bushings out or something. How do I do that?

BATANG CITY JAIL · 12-05-2007, 11:31 PM

take the clip off the cable, use a flat head screw driver to do it... to put it back, just snap it in.. its kinda hard btw o b care full.

disclimer: im not going to be responsible if anything will be broken or messed up.
