Hey all, never done this before so i need some help. Two questions...

Can you change the nylon seat and nuckle ball at the end of the hydro displacer shaft for the reaer suspension without de presurising the hydro system? :oops:

If not, whats the easiest way to de pressurize the hydro system without any special tools?

1. Not that I know of unless the pressure in your hydro system is really low.

2. there are two valves (regular schrader valves) under the back of the mini in the rear subframe just use a match stick, finger nail / screw driver to let some fluid out.
You will have to release the helper spring on the back and go from there it will probably help if both wheels on that side are off the ground.

You will obviously have to pump up the suspension afterwards so it is probably a good idea to track down a hydro pump or make your own.
