Hi James ,
That's right .Got the pistons out but they do not fit the new stanchions from DS . It looks like they need machining out or honing out a few thou to go on , At least I have all the parts now thank God .

Those stanchions from DS are made in Italy and are chromed at the bottom and shouldn't be. I got mine from Yamiya, they are made in Japan and are not chromed at the bottom, hence they don't need grinding. Price is about the same if you buy from Saisei (I paid 170GBP a pair landed).

Hi Ash,
The funny thing is that the old extended stanchions are chromed all the way down but the pistons fit a treat ? .So what you are saying is that I should machine the stanchions to fit the pistons , sounds logical to me ,Cheers , Alan .

PM UKPete as he fitted the DSS ones and complained that they were not correct. hence I bought the Yamiya ones but I still have not assembled them .. or Trigger will probably know. I did pass on the complaint to David Silver himself but he couldn't provide any tech details from his supplier so I voted with my feet and got them off Saisei
cheers Ash
