[QUOTE="NO HAND, post: 747034, member: 18937"] Hi guys, I would like to know if it's hard to service the oil seal of the inner chamber of my Showa. I see some peen marks right at the lower end of the cartridge. Is that it? Do I have to drill peen marks :ohmy: to get there? Well first I'm not even sure, I noticed when I serviced the damper that one of the cartridge has no stiction anymore, I mean I feel no seal drag like it used to be and the shaft is more wet than the other side. That means the seal in there is shot right? :ugg: Now both forks are assembled and the feel is very different from one to the other. The one with the weak seal feels loose on rebound. Now if the seal is gone and I ride it like this, the oil is gonna escape to the spring chamber, and no oil left means I'm about to wreck the inner chamber right? Im still hoping everything's all right and it's all in my head. I would really appreciate your opinions on this, I feel paranoïa taking over! Thanks in advance :worship: [/QUOTE]
