How difficult is Fork seal replacement?
« on: January 31, 2008, 01:26:08 AM »
One of the things I would like to start doing is fork seal replacement. At one time, I was replacing seals once a month at $50 a side. I thought that was high, but now guys are increasing the fees. I replaced the brass bushings that align things and that drastically reduced replacement cycles. It looks easy with the right drivers and other tools, but I wanted some other opinions other than my mechanic's. For you guys, who do it regularly, what tools, and where do you get info on setting them up for personal preference? Is it even worth taking it on?
