Could someone clarify these instructions.......I am familar with KYB, but not showa these were taken from MX-tech 2312 instuctions cr 250 -01 .
this means? and what is the slot tool?
Using a slot tool, remove the clicker bolt from the rod end.
-Using care remove the slot tool from rod end and let the rod return against spring tension
as well as this....
Place and align the fork cylinder in the tube.
-Using the slot tool feed the rod throw the end of the fork using your finger, and then capture the end with the slot.
-Place the indexed d-rod in the rod.
-Place the 21mm bolt on the end of the rod and tighten down till it bottoms out. Then tighten the jam nut down. Torque sufficiently.
-Grease the threads before removing the slot tool. Carefully remove the slot tool and start the threads by hand.
What I am doing is fork seals for a friend, I have done them in Kayabas, but the showas seem more technical
I have not taken them apart so maybe it is just a visual thing....
