07 510 Smr Forks

Hey Folks

I had a bit of a bender on my SMR and have got a nasty dent in the lower LH stanchion.
I've got the 50mm marzocchi shivers and have found a set online from an 06 TE510 also 50mm.

Now I'm hoping because the stanchions are the same I can swap all the internals over from the SMR and the lower radial caliper mount, new seals and happy days.

I know the TE has more travel and is a bit softer but all i need is the stanchions will I have any issues?
Am I overlooking anything?
Thanks in Advance.

If it was not the brake side you would probably be ok. I do not how you would transfer the brake mount.

Aren't they threaded on rancher1 like other forks

No, the lugs for the caliper are molded in the for leg.

I think we're thinking of different bits.

I had a crack this morning and with a bit of heat and some leverage with a mate we got them both off without too much hassle.
The dented fork was a bit harder to spin but not too difficult.

So anyone curious as to how it went here's some pics.
Haven't got the replacements yet but ready to go when they arrive.
