Bob Myers fork seal tool is available

Recommended Posts

Bob Myers made a tool that seats the bushings and seals on the 2nd gen forks, It was decided to pass it around to the members as needed, with the last possessor paying the shipping. FLB was the first, and im the second. I just finished assembling the fork legs and in a few days ill be adding the fork oil. Once im sure its not leaking ill post the tools availability.

 

So, if your planning on rebuilding/re-sealing your front forks on a 2nd gen, this tool is indispensable. It worked like a charm.

 

Thanks again, Bob and Forrest....:smile5:

Ruffy, are you capable of making a detailed drawing of it? I have forgotten most of the dimensioning. Forrest and I changed it some after the first run, and we did not document the latest/greatest version of it.

 

Dave, I can do so, give me a couple weeks to either dig this hole deeper or get out of it. I am covered up at work right now. In fact, I'll likely pull another 12 tomorrow and 8 on Sunday, just trying to finish off stuff from July.

Good idea Forrest, I would likely make that one over any way. It just didn't suit me for fit and finish if you remember.

Any one that wants this loaner tool or a personal version of it can post in this thread or PM me.

Bob, it worked just fine for me. Cant see where it would need any more improvements. Ill get it in the mail once I fill the forks and make sure I have no leaks. Should be no later then Wed. :smile5:

You're a polishin' fool, Jeff.

 

I got something that could use a good polish job.

Bob-

 

Don't stress on it. It's something that I'm looking to do this winter. Even if you have the specs (drawings) on it. I can have my friend make one in his shop.
