Just a thought. :?
Don't forget we live on the coast John with the salty sea air. Remember the b@5t@rd of a job I had getting the originals out :roll: I can live with leaving the inside bottom of the fork just etch primed, but I'm still going to have to clout the feckers with a hammer to get the links in. The central metal bushes are slightly longer than the nylon/plastic outer bushes. A delicate bit of fettling may be required :oops: :roll:
Slap a shed load of grease in there Mark... ;)
Did you have to do that?

Well, I filed a bit off each side of the steel bush, MAKING SURE IT STILL PROTRUDES BEYOND THE PLASTIC BUSH ;) and managed to get one in although still snug (no grease on the fecker yet). Didn't need much filed off. Just got the other one to do :roll:
