Thanks Harry!
I haven't had any luck finding a 27mm nut yet, I found a S/K 14mm hex head socket though.
I called yesturday to see if my forks were done, and the guy says "I can't get 'em apart either, I don't have the proper tool to keep the inside from turning" Then he said he could fabricate the tool and would not have time to do it until next week. So, I called my buddy and told him the news. And he said "you mean we can't go riding?" :whiner:
Then it dawned on me that it was Memorial Day weekend, so I ran down and picked up my forks. Shoot I have been riding it over a month with a leaky seal, I can ride 'er like that for the weekend. I tried making a tool with an 1 1/8 nut but it was just to loose. It may have worked if the nut was made of a harder steel. Oh well.....
