• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Adding compression adjusters to the 630 forks

Hi all,

Has anybody installed compression adjusters before? Can it be done by just flipping the fork leg upside down and unscrewing the old and screwing in the new, or does the entire fork leg has to be taken apart like for when you do a service?
I ready to install a set of adjusters I bought from one of the members here a while back, but since I've serviced the forks not that long ago I'd rather not dump the fresh oil out if I can avoid it.
 
It is a 45mm Marzocchi.

So I watched a video on single chamber servicing to refresh my memory. And yes, I was able to just unscrew the non-adjustable compression control and bolt the adjustable ones in place.
I was afraid that the oil would be under pressure, but that wasn't the case.

This is for a KYB, but the procedure is essentially the same:
