Bryanj:
In that case you will need the slider from a 550 or a PAIR of forks from a 550 (internals vary so fitting just one complete fork is not advisable) plus if you look at the other thread on twin discs I linked a word document with a How To.

Always worth putting in what bike mate as avatars don't always show up
