OK OK put those images out of your mind!!!!! :D

Right back on track

I am having a colour change and wonder in "Your" experience guys whats the best way to remove the crown race from the forks without damaging the Dirt Skirt.

I have thought about some medium in between the drift and the DS like plastic.

Anybody have a brain wave?

Cheers

Dirt skirts are as fragile as jam tart tins, i'm sorry to say that you've got very little chance of not damaging it when removing the crown race. BITD they were about 50 cents and not really designed to be reused.

WELD A TUBULAR SPACER TO THE CROWN RACE AND THEN YOU CAN PULL I OFF !!!

THE DIRT SKIRT BEING YOUR PRIME CONCERN.

COST TO REPLACE CROWN RACE  2 QUID VERSUS DELETED STOCK DIRT SKIRT....NO BRAINER

Mole grips very loosley tightened to the crown race stop and gently tap against the bottom of the dirt skirt  :daumenhoch:
