[QUOTE="c3hammer, post: 88049, member: 18554"] lobotomy: It sounds like you need a fork rebuild. Either get the manual and read up about how to do it your self or send them out for a cleaning and oil change. I'd suggest that you've had leaking seals and a bunch of the oil is gone. You probably find the front diving under braking and in the sand all the time. This results in the swaps and erratic turning characteristics. For your type of terrain, I would recomend a higher oil height than stock with the stock springs. I'm not familiar with what's in the 96 forks, but my 94 forks were ok with the stock valving. I did my own valving with the help of MACE and Shocknut last winter. They pointed me in the right direction and I now have a pretty good set up for similar terrain to yours. Email me if you want to get into it. [/QUOTE]
