Best Quality koyo oil seals Exquisite Workmanship.You will need to make a tool to hold the rebound dampener when loosening the bolt in the very bottom of the fork. You can make one by getting a three foot piece of 5/8 threaded rod and four nuts (Should be able to get at any hardware store). Run two nuts on the end and tighten them together to lock them and do the same on the other end so you can grip it with a wrench. I made one by welding a 5/8 nut to the end of a rod and using a vise grip to hold it.Best Quality koyo oil seals Exquisite Workmanship.
Carefully slide the tool into the fork and put an allen wrench into the end of the fork
It may take a lot of force to break the bolt free in the bottom of the fork. Try using a vise grip on the allen wrench or another open-end wrench on it to get it loose. Just make sure to keep the allen wrench seated in the bolt. (Stripping the head of the bolt will make much more work.) Then spin the bolt all the way out of the end of the fork. There is a copper gasket on this bolt so dona€?t lose it (may be stuck to the outer tube). Then pull out the tool for the dampener.Best Quality koyo oil seals Exquisite Workmanship.
Next carefully pry the dust cover off of the top of the outer tube with a flat screwdriver using a twisting motion. Be careful not to scratch the inner tube.
Slide the dust cover out of the way and look at the snap ring. Notice there are loops in it. Put your screw driver in one of the loops and pry it away from the outer tube and remove it.
Now to you can remove the inner tube. To do so, slide the inner tube all the way into the outer tube. Now firmly grasp the inner tube and sharply pull on it with medium force. Repeat until the outer tube is free. This is what it will look like when it is apart. When you are pulling out the inner tube you are driving out the bearing in the top of the fork (Bearing #1) from its seat. You will have to drive it back in when re-assembling the fork. (Not difficult)
To clean them up, remove the dampener from the inside of the inner tube (slides out when you tip the top end of the inner tube down), soak all parts in warm water with your favorite soap. Run a green scouring pad through the inner tube and the outer tube. Clean with soap and water and rinse with clean water. Dry parts and re-assemble.Best Quality koyo oil seals Exquisite Workmanship.
