Absolute nak oil seals
At A Low Price.Replacing Fork Seal.I’ve busted another (it’s the 2.nd
in 4 months) fork seal and I intend to replace it myself. I’ve searched
the wisdom here and it looks simple. Just to make sure, can the wrench
gods confirm the following steps:
a) With a 15 mm and a 19 mm loose the stanchion from the top triple clamp
b) once loose, the stanchion will move down inside the slider.
b) remove the plastic black band at the top of the stanchion.
c) unscrew the cup (is it a sort of dust seal ? is it screwn in?)
d) remove a retaining clip
e) pry the busted seal off. (anyone knows standard seal dimensions?)Absolute nak oil seals At A Low Price.
f) Install new seal, reverse the rest of the operation
g) take front wheel and axle out, take air purge plug at top of stanchion out and drain fork leg at bottom drain plug.
h) fill 0.47 l of SAE 5 susp. oil.
Is it something like this or am I totally wrong? Why do these shites blow if there’s no susp internals inside? Are we supposed to purge the air regularly like on real forks?Absolute nak oil seals At A Low Price.
