Re: Shake the Box CL360
No pix again, but got the other fork tube pulled apart.. No problems and nothing unexpected. Both of the tubes are in beautiful shape with no pitting or rust. All pretty much like new, really. If I had the lowers painted I could get them back together. Spoze I'd better get at the painting, huh?
Unless I get a better suggestion from someone on here I'm going to use synthetic 10w30 for replacement fork oil. Some on DTT say that's the way to go, others say ATF and I haven't been able to find a consensus.
I got the headstock bearings in from All Balls. My only concern is that the bottom bearing doesn't want to slide all the way down. I hope if I put the bottom triple and tube into the freezer I'll be able to get it to slide down without having to get the tube machined. Guess I'd better get out the micrometer and and see how far off it is.
