I've done fork rebuilds many times in the past but that was when I had a proper garage with a work bench. Most likely I'll drop them but then get someone local to do them.ace llani wrote: Sun Oct 18, 2020 9:19 am
If it can pull dirt out, I can only imagine it will push far more in, which will then be trapped between the seal and the upper bush.
Quick fix but I'd be rebuilding them ASAP.
Will you rebuilld them yourself?
