front forks leak oil from seal area after about 4 rides.
forks work great after replacing seals,dust seals, and oil.
once i spot leakage {i keep a close watch } forks become unpredictable, otherwise unstable!! Does annyone have some knowledge they could share?
Do i also need to replace slides and piston slides even though they dont look worn?
Also< what part or parts are responsible for keeping the majority of oil{pressure} away from the seal , as i dont see how the seal alone could keep the oil where it belongs with the type of abuse forks see.
IS ANY OF THIS MAKING SENSE?
Any help would be greatly be appreciated!!
