Question about leaf spring clamps/retainers

Post by buddha »

I want to lose a couple of leaves from the packs but im not sure how to deal with the spring clamps/retainers or what ever their called.

I know my mates lux has them and he spread them open to get more flex and they dont fall out , so how do i get them out or off , and replace them ?

Lever them open with a screw driver and leave them open, don't have to go all the way just enough to get the springs out.
