ibskot 37 #1 Posted March 21, 2015 Trying to get this off. I am transferring a hitch system to one with nothing. This is the bar that the chain lift is attached to under the seat pan. If I can get this off I am golden I think. Thanks for any help in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,774 #2 Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Pull off the gas tank and remove 2 clips. Easy. Don't forget the bushings the rock shaft pivots in. Edited March 21, 2015 by squonk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,839 #3 Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Not necessary to pull the fuel tank. Just pop off BOTH of the inside edge 'E' clips and wiggle the entire rockshaft out of the bracket, then pop out the bushings on each side. There is an E clip like this on each side. Take them both out...completely. The rockshaft will slide enough, one way or the other, for it to drop out. You don't really need to spring the fuel tank bracket apart...nor take the seat off. Having the seat pan off MAY make it easier to see what is goin' on. Edited March 21, 2015 by daveoman1966 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wh5208speed 646 #4 Posted March 21, 2015 You don't have to take the gas tank off to remove, but I will say it makes it much easier...especially if you don't have some to help pry the seat support apart. Thad (Ohio) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
