Fork service

[Logroller]

Anyone have a video/write up or link on the set by step process of servicing our forks and shocks. The '06 TE450 broke its fork seals (50mm) so I need to go through and clean out the valves, oil, gunk and put in some new seals.

The rear suspension needs servicing as well.

Cheers.

Yep go to the Rocky Mountain ATV MM site. Under their home page is a video bit. plug into that they have truck loads of free vids to view and do both single and dual cartridge vids.

Here is link to a thread ... it is a little drawn out but might help... It is about the open chamber forks I think ... Cleaning the tubes helped mine greatly and stopped the sticking issue I was having ...

A few of use here have had seals that had dirt \ mudd in them before and caused leaking even though the seals were actually good ... Cleaned them and they were good as new ...

Look in the first link below for a service manual on the 45 and 50mm Marzocchi. You'll see them on the bottom left of the page.

Turns out all the shops have the wrong part numbers for the 2006 TE450 forks seals and dust seals. My forks are 50mm (the TE450/510) were revalved to the 50mm this year. Confirmed it by measuring my fork tubes and I have a Husky pamphlet that states the same. F.Y.I., when ordering parts for this year, they are listed as 45mm.
