Hi all...
I'm in the process of changing the fork seals, but i can't unscrew the bottom fork bolt (Damper Cartridge Bolt).
I lossened it before dismantling, but now i need to unscrew it completely.
It just keeps turning without undoing.
I know there is a tool that can be inserted into the fork tube to hold the Damper still while the bolt is unscrewed, but these tools are expensive.
Im wondering if anyone has ever made their own tool to do the job and if you have how did you make it?
I've trued holding the damper to the side of the inside of the fork tube, but everything still turns with the bolt grrrrrr.
Any tips would be great.
Thanks in advance - great site by the way..
