Self Locking nut on Shock
Im tryna take off my shock on my 95 GSR, but r there any tips for taking off the self locking nut on the shock absorber? cuz its crazily hard.
i put the 14mm wrench on the self locking nut, and the allen wrench on top to hold it in place but it still doesnt budge at all. thanks

That's pretty much it.
If you have a spring compresser, which I assume you do, try taking some pressure off of the nut by compressing the spring a bit. Then you're only fighting the friction between the nut and threads.
