G'day guys n gals,
Recently the time has come to change fork seals on my old trusty RMX. No problems disassembling the first one. In fact I found the fork quite easy to disassemble and rebuild. The problem started on the second one. Before removing the fork I usually undo the nut on top a couple of turns (Much easier to undo it on the bike than in a vice). Using a 17mm socket and rattle gun, couldn't release it. Tried using 17mm socket and breaker bar.... nothing other than a stripped nut. I am now stuck. The only ways I can think to remove the nut are all destructive. Does anyone have any suggestions for me to try?
Cheers.
