HOW TO: Forks Seals, Bushes and Oil
#15
I've just done this job, using this guide for reference.  (3hrs for the 1st leg, 1hr for the 2nd)


I'd like to add a couple of snippets of info that caught me out.


1. After pulling the inner from the outer, I had more bits that were listed - the normal bush, washer and seal, but also a white-ish, top hat shaped piece of plastic with a spring in it.  I couldn't see any reference to this and couldn't work out where it went.  After much trial and error, I found it went into the outer fork, before the inner.  On the picture of the removed inner (visible on the yuku page) you can see the end of it stuck into the inner (left side).  It seemed to tight to fit there on mine, but I confirmed from the other fork, that is where it goes.


2. Halfway through the strip down, I found a copper washer on the floor and wasn't sure where it came from.  It wasn't until the 2nd fork that I discovered that it went on the damper bolt, on the underside of the fork.
