Lost a spring in my dt forks. help!

[killerbanjo]

Hey there, was doing the fork seals in some dt 125 lc forks in prep for putting them on my cg, and I either lost, or didnt have the top spring in one of the forks, I was thinking could I just take the spring out of the other fork and replace both with rubber buffers? I thought this might lower the suspension a tad with would be a good thing for me.


Cheers! Ed

on top of the main spring there is a small about 5cm spring, I have lost one of them but I don't see any reason to remove them, other thank it will lower the suspension a little.

PVC spacers, not rubber. You need something firm over the spring, rubber will degrade too fast. Expect to go up a weight or two on your fork oil in order to maintain the correct "feel" when the forks cycle...
