  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Hello,
Im trying to make service to my front fork and on one of the legs the stanchion tube will not separate from the slider. (TE250 -08)
The metal stop ring is removed but the tube seems impossible to pull out from the slider.
The other fork leg went fine. Any comments to what might be the problem or things to try is very welcome.

Regards

sometimes a little heat from a heat gun in the area around the outside of the seal area helps release the bushings
 
What worked?

Rather than removing the thread it works pretty good to document problems and solutions, no matter if it's simply elbow grease.
 
Well - I just used more brutal force, I didn't heat anything.
The bushings and all other stuff where in very bad shap...
