Both of my forks were a tiny bit leaky, and I worried I'd have to rebuild them this winter. I found a tool by motion pro called Seal Mate. It was affordable at around $7, but with shipping, and the simplicity of the design, I figured there was a better way. I watched the video on how it worked, then decided that there was no reason I couldn't make the same thing out of a 2 liter pop bottle. Here's the link to how it works. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wlzfoVroSY&feature=youtube_gdata_player I cut one to the same design, and popped off my dust covers, cleaned them, and cleaned the seals. Neither of them are leaking now. Hopefully someone will find this helpful. -- GLDS Mailing List Options --- To remove your address, email: To see the messages on a web page (archives): http://gldsmc.org/mailman/private/glds_gldsmc.org> To get your password for this mailing list, email: List Manager: President@... -----Inline Attachment Follows----- -- GLDS Mailing List Options --- To remove your address, email: To see the messages on a web page (archives): http://gldsmc.org/mailman/private/glds_gldsmc.org> To get your password for this mailing list, email: List Manager: President@...
