LP2a SAR restoration

[Andrew Rowe]

Measure the width of the Bogie fork and then measure your gap between the suspension unit and divide x 2 to get the thickness of the seal. All the lips, etc in the original are there to over complicate a rather simple application. Do not make the seals too thick as you will swear a lot trying to get the fork in the housing, without wrecking the new seals. You may find different measurements for different housings, and you only need 1 mm or 2 mm compression on the rubber seals to work, and inside dia. is only a snug fit for the dia. of the shaft that goes through the fork. Cheers Andrew.
