Well tried most things mentioned here chaps with thanks.
But still no joy, looks like i will need either a impact gun to shock it or get the tool. Pete how much did the tool cost out of interest? Well as i have said, out of all the forks i've done before this has certainly turned a 2 hour job into nearly a full day. ![]() Cheers. |

It's always the same. A whole motrobike ruined because of some damn bolt.
Trick is not to get mad and feck something else up too! Here's hoping you get it sorted! |

As I said, I've a cheap 12v impact gun (runs off the vehicle battery, or ciggy lighter socket), I've even got one for the mrs to change wheel nuts (and she's a 5' nothing girl) cost about £15-20 or so, a good investment.
Cheers Mark.

Don't think it would be any better than the homemade tools previously described. |

Cheers Mark, better invest in one.
As the forks go, given up to be honest i personally think loctite has been used as all other bolts i removed had loctite on. The stanctions are pitted badly to a certain degree so really going to look around for another set. And keep these as spares. |
