I rebuilt the forks on my 76 R90/6 This past winter as one seal was leaking and i'm sure a rebuild was well past due. The internal bumpers were crumbling also I'm sure thry were original. Everything went together well and was pretty happy with the outcome. over the summer I noticed the copper crush washer for the bottom cap was leaking slightly so of course I snugged it up, no help so tighted it up a llittle more still no help. OK so now i'v flatened it and thats not good. I ordered new crush washers and was wondering if some one has some advice for doing this properly.
My plan is to remove the cap to dump the fluid does this make sense? Oh and I now have the proper size socket for the cap nut and can now tourqe it down properly was using a large cresent wrench and guessing on the 1st attempt bad technique I realize but hey thats all I had at the time.
Any suggestion on making this painless it greatly appreciated
