Working on Mojo HD3
The linkage assemblies on the HD3 are
designed to be removed and replaced
easily. Be sure to purchase a fresh link
set before removing the old ones to skip
any downtime. There are no bearings to
press out, nor any axles to hammer. Upper
and lower pivot assemblies are available
in the buy section of our website, or you
can have your dealer order them from Ibis
for you. Replacement is super simple and
requires these common tools:
• 2x 4mm Allen wrenches
• 2x 6mm Allen wrenches
• 2x 5mm Allen wrenches

Bearing Replacement
If you’re handy with a bench vice and have
a good supply of sockets, you can attempt
the replacement of the bearings in the
upper and lower link yourself. While we
don’t have step–by–step instructions, you
are welcome to purchase the bearings and
try it yourself.
