  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

250-500cc Marzocchi Broken 45mm Shiver Rebound Adjuster Screw :(

Not listed as a rebuildable part. Fork cap not manufactured anymore. You might find a cap assembly on Ebay eventually.
 
As above. Anything Marzocchi is nearly unobtanium anymore. I've purchased whole forks just to get parts.
 
I did receive a few links to a couple of European sites that carry it...it's close to $100US.
Will continue going through my wr250 first...see what else needs attention.
 
Very Tempting.

I'm just getting back into riding...reason for picking up a project wr250.

If I love it:
Sell it, and pickup something newer.
or
Keep it, and address remaining issues.

Will cross that bridge when I get there :)
 
Thanks husky jim.
I actually scored a cap from flyingbob here on cafehusky.

Appreciate the community we have here.
Cheers :cheers:
 
I wish I noticed this thread when it was opened.
Anyhow, I did replace those screws in my Shiver fork years ago.
I found them in a suspensions shop; I don't know whether they could be still found nowadays.
The screw is sealed by an oring:

And from the side there is a ball which holds it in position. The ball has some preload from a spring, compressed by a set screw. When we adjust the rebound we hear clicks because as the yellow (brass?) screw is rotated, the ball retracts and then enters the next groove: in that moment it clicks.
