I want to service my fox floats myself instead of paying 70-80 quid to some one else to do it.
Does anyone know of any online guides etc for doing it?
Also while im on the subject of forks, who on here lubes there fork uppers and what lube do you use, ive been using a bottle of fork oil to lube mine but would it be okay to use chain lube?

Check out the following site. My LBS put me on to them when I needed to replace the rear shock bushes. I phoned the guys up and they run through a couple of quick fire questions about the shock. Then gave me a price for the parts. I found their advice to be really helpful. I settled on the ceramic bushes as they supposedly last longer. So far so good. The bushes even came with a good set of installation instructions. I've not serviced my forx yet, so can't really comment on the service packs, but I'm sure these guys can help. Let me know how you get on, as my forx will need servicing some time soon. Hopefully we can all learn from your mistakes ;D ;D ;D www.tftuned.com/
