#406581 eirinn99 (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 287 a crack on the frame shock damper mount! 1 Year, 10 Months ago   Yesterday my mechanic called me in the middle of the rear shock replacement. He told me that the shock damper mount on the frame was cracked. here is where the crack was: a friend of mine welded that piece, so now it should be ok... anyone had that problem too?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #406582 greenpus (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2177 Re:a crack on the frame shock damper mount! 1 Year, 10 Months ago   eirinn99 wrote: anyone had that problem too? http://roadstarclinic.com/content/view/142/164/   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #406584 Blackroadie (User) Sometimes I wish you were a pinata !
