I tore my forks apart to see if they were going to be reusable or not. There is some rust on the tubes,but nothing major and I know a guy in town that can redo the hard nickel plating. There is wear marks on the inside of the slider and on the tubes.It's deep enough that it is easily felt with your finger.Are they shot,or is this reusable?I dont think they were ever well cared for.When I popped the cap off I instantly could smell the definite aroma of gear oil.Yeah,this stuff was thick
I have not had any success in getting the old seal to come out if anyone has a trick for that.
Also,I have on fork that I can not get get damper rod to come loose. It is just spinning inside the fork when I turn the bolt.Any tricks for this,too? Obviously, I have not gotten that one apart to see the wear on it.
