Title: Front Damper
Post by: AMG on Wednesday, 04 September 2024, 04:20 AM
Just stripped my front forks complete. Couldn't find any posts stating the A/F dim of the internal damper that spins like an awkward thing.

You mean like this tool to make in the suspension subforum?

Only fits early forks though, the later ones are different & I'm not aware of a thread on how to make a tool for those.

There are 2 different tools
1 for the upto end of k4 forks and the other for k5 and later
Both internals are totally different between early and later models so you will need the correct tool.
There are pictures of both in the threads.
