First fork seal job..
First fork seal job..
Just finished it on my Suzuki GS1100.Getting the forks out was hell!Getting the old seals out wasn't bad.For putting the new ones back in i used a pvc "t" that just fit over the fork tubes(think it was 1 3/4")for a "slide hammer" and then used the old seal put on top of the new seal to pound it in.Worked out pretty slick.After sore arms from pulling out the old forks,i knew i needed better grip! i found an old bike innertube to wrap up the fork for grip,then used soapy water to lubricate a little...worked pretty good!Don't want to do another one anytime soon!!
