Fork seals

<< < (2/3) > >>

AndyD:
I've had a lot of luck using a slightly sharpened broom handle to bang into the fork leg and hold the internals tight enough to undo the allen bolt.
Always amazed it's worked and worst bit is the stinky old oil all over the handle afterwards

Cheers,
Andy

oldchuffer:
Thanks everyone. Useful link Julie, many thanks.

Bryanj:
It does make a difference and so does the impact gun, i used a 3/8 drive air gun

oldchuffer:
Unfortunately i do not have an impact gun. It might have to be the broom handle trick. Wish me luck.

SumpMagnet:
I still use the broom handle method....which I first saw in the Haynes manual of all places, which advocatyed banging something similar in to jam the damper assembly if the spring didn't hold it.
