I'm hoping to finally get started on my forks before long. I've got .85kg KTech Linear springs, YSS PD Valves and a pair of damper Rods for drilling and I'm thinking of starting with 10w oil as I want a plush comfortable sports touring type setup rather than track day handling. FireFox Racing have told me that the damper rods don't need drilling but everything I've read on here and everywhere else online says they do, so having got a donor pair I might as well do it. Can anyone tell me whether I need to use the washer from the bottom of the original spring or whether the new spring should sit directly on top of the PD valve, this seems wrong to me but would the washer restrict the oil flow if it's fitted? Any other hints and tips would be gratefully accepted, thanks.
