    I was just wondering how hard it is to replace a Fork Seal. Do you have to drain the Fork, do you need a special tool, etc?

    My right Fork Seal is leaking a bit.

    Thanks

    We really need more focused, less commercial, Husqvarna specific videos for things like this. With a collection of easy 'how to' videos life would be much easier for people.

    Thanks,

    I guess for now, I will support my local Husky Dealer and get him to do it.

    New seals might be worth learning how to do but I watched it being done and it's fairly involved.

    If you have rode in the mud lately, try cleaning them first. Usually solves the problem and saves a bunch of money.

    Yer maw !
    Mine leak a bit , but not from where it meets the lower tube, but at the top where the seal is fitted into top tube ! ... Seemingly a pretty crude finish inside 45mm marzocchi's ! :(
