Ola GSers, got a question, I'm planning to have my fork lowers powder coated. Though after stripping them down and such, I remember they have a teflon bronze bushing at the top of the leg. How is the heat gonna affect them? I went through several parts suppliers and no one shows a replacement for the top bushings. They do show the replacements for the sliders. Looking forward to hear what anyone has to say about this.
