M6 (possibly M5?? one of the two, can't remember) flatheads. you can pick them up in your local Ace Hardware store...What size are the countersunk bolts for the lower shock mount on the 07s? I lost one yesterday...
Yeah I can swipe them from work, just wanted the length if possible?M6 (possibly M5?? one of the two, can't remember) flatheads. you can pick them up in your local Ace Hardware store...
Awesome, thanks mate.it is M6 for sure..give me a sec..I will pull one and measure it.
16mm in length
Thats a bb/crank specific question, has nothing to do with the sunday specifically, except that the cranks only come on that bike....im sure its been answered in one of these pages somewhere but searching through 50 pages to get this answer seems over the top. so here goes. need to know where the bb spacers go? sunday with regular e-13 guide that i setup with the iscg mounted with the black spacers as e-13's manual explained. i have fsa gap megaexo cranks 83mm bb and there are 2 spacers included with the kit and im wondering which side to throw the spacers on as its not shown in the installation instructions anywhere for the 83mm bb.
thanks for the help ahead of time
something is up..the gravity gap cranks available for purchace are 68/73mm only. Do you either have gravitys? or 73mm gaps?well i got the cranks off qbp so they are new to the frame technically......but now that i understand how to measure out the 57.5mm then thatll do just as well thanks.
Not listed on the FSA site, not listed at QBP, or BTI, or Cycleslambert (Canadian FSA distro) or any other distributors in any way. Not listed at any web-retailers, cant find them on google, not available through lbs. A good friend works @ FSA and did not know of them....my guess is they are comming directly from TH industries.You can source 83mm gaps davep, not sure where everyone got the idea that they're oem-only. I remember another guy in the "lightest 83mm cranks" thread buying a set of the 06 ones.
If you've got something to get you by, wait for the new MegaExo Gravity Lites. Hill seems to be on them already, so hopefully they'll be out and available soon.I have been looking for the last month or so for lighter weight 83mm cranks for my personal build.
Both, actally. A good online shop for springs is:

Actually you are correct in your assumptions. A threaded bar that would fit through the center of both bearings on either side of the frame combined with some bolts and really large diameter washers would work.
An Easier solution though would be to purchase small to medium sized C-Clamps:

You can use one of these to press in the bearings one at a time.
Hope this helps!
To answer your first question: The 07' Linkage Kit replaces the Upper Links, Lower Link, all of the bearings, all of the mounting hardware for the shock. If you need to order a set they are available now. To order call 1-800-645-5477 and ask for Mike L.Question first: What parts are included in the ´07 linkage-kit and will it be available in germany? And if not how can I get it?
To my problem:yesterday I´ve ridden the bike for the first time and I recognized that I need another spring, so I removed the shock to change the spring and saw what you can see on the pictures:
on the right side is quite a bit of space between the frame and the lower link, and on the left side there´s no space!
I don´t know if this is quite normal or not, but I can imagine that´s not! So I hope some of you guys can help me to get this right.
Thanks!
Agreed 100%, although Kevin is probably the worst I've delt with, but that was made up by Todd.Aussie support sucks for most mtb products really, I don't think IH is the sole offender at all.
IH USA have been brilliant though, including sending small parts for free and offering fast and helpful responses like ryan said. Talk to them directly and see how you go.
Thanks for answering my question for the linkage-kit, but one part of this question is still unanswered: will it be available in Germany?To answer your first question: The 07' Linkage Kit replaces the Upper Links, Lower Link, all of the bearings, all of the mounting hardware for the shock.

Second Question: It's a bit difficult to see detail in the pics but from the looks of things, you might be missing a spacer that goes in between the link and the frame. The 07' Linkage Kit does not use these spacers, but instead uses special Enduro MAX-E extended inner race bearings that eliminate the need for the spacers. At least this is what I'm gathering from the pics - kinda hard to see.
Hope this helps.
The IH distributor here in Japan is a waste of space. I've only ever been told "we don't have it and can't get it". IH USA on the other hand are fantastic to deal with. They have sent me small parts free of charge before now, and I called them a few weeks ago to get the new 07 Linkage kit. Spoke to Carl in CS and he was really helpful. The kit was in Japan 2 days after I ordered it from IH USA (took a few more days after that to get to my house though as Japanese Customs were taking their time with it )Agreed 100%, although Kevin is probably the worst I've delt with, but that was made up by Todd.
Yep, so DHX/Roco/5th will fit the new hardware.Are the 10mm shock hardware still 1/2 du bushing size?
Do you have a spacer behind your BB cup? You need that.Any suggestions on setting up an E.13 SRS on an 06? Right now the chain is rubbing on the backplate, the inside of the lower roller assembly, and the upper guide is rubbing the inside of the bashguard. I had 1 spacer between the mounts and the backplate, but that pushed it even further so now I have no spacers. I am running the recommended 83x128mm BB.
Thickness? Are BB spacers specific to the bottom bracket make? Should most shops have what I need?Do you have a spacer behind your BB cup? You need that.
An 2.5mm BB spacer should do the trick. Any shop should have one for you.Thickness? Are BB spacers specific to the bottom bracket make? Should most shops have what I need?
