Required Fork Rebuild Equipment


I built mine and a few others..

I didn't use the nice fancy fork spring compressor, although I wished I had. I used a 3" metal fitting collar, some threaded rod and thats about it for disassembly. Bushing dont always need to be replaced, only if they are worn. Springs, fluid, seals and dust wipers are needed.

Here is a link to a pictoral/write-up I done last year, using the old skool home made tool.... Fork Rebuild

I have since used the fork spring compressor offered from Motion Pro, Trax, Racetech and others.. so much nicer.

If this helps cool, if you need more info let me know.
