Mato metal sherman suspension removal

[B_Man]

Does anyone know how to remove the suspension bogies from a Mato metal sherman hull? They appear to be permanently attached but I'm hoping they can be removed otherwise they are going to be a bit of a hassle to paint.

hi there if you take off the top deck you will see inside that there are 2 small screws and a clip take out the 2 screws remove the clip by sliding up wards the suspension can then be taken off depending on your gears at the front you may need to take them out to gain room to get to the front 2
hope this helps dave

Thanks for the response Dave but the metal hull doesn't seem to have screws. It looks like this:

The clips that hold the bogies to the hull are attached very firmly and there is no obvious way to remove them that I can see.

Dear Dave,

Please find the attached picture for reference. You need to pry and take off the part which I point.

Any problem, please let me know
