You can use an air impact wrench to loosen the
dampers BEFORE removing the caps and springs. Catch
the oil in a bucket. My emulators are set at three
turns and I run with 20w oil and no air. My spacer
length is cut too 9.37 inches as per the instructions
that came with the Progressive springs.
Cheers
Steve
