i'm trying to fit a pair of the above and the circlip plyers i have just won't open the clip wide enough to fit it, i have try'd two pair of mole grips but even that won't quite do it and anyway i'm afrade i'll twised and break the clip, so any ideas that will get them on without me having to make up an oversized pair of circlip plyers, in brief 1.5mm thick circlip over a 38mm bar, and yes they are the ones that came supplyed so should be the right size, any ideas that don't involve cash greatfully recieved,
thanks mark. |

Can you not force it over the end and use a pipe or socket to push it into place?
I assume its the ones you push through from behind and secure it from the front with circlip? 59 2.4 110 XS Utility 55 TD5 110 CSW Special Vehicle |
