Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
If top of the damper rod is a round hole, like mine too, you can use a piece of broomstick. You probably don?t even need to shape it like I did. This definitely helps. I was able to break the bottom bolt loose using an air impact gun, this improvised tool wasn?t needed. But this definitely helped hold the damper rod from spinning when I re-torqued the bolt on reassembly.

For tightening the damper rod bolt. I do the final torque when the bike is all assembled with weight on the front wheel , this works most of the time, sometimes I have to use a air ratchet. You only need to get it initialy tight enough not to leak. This applies to damper rods that cannot be easily held. It's sometimes easier to break the fork cap and damper rod bolts free when still on the bike, don't forget to loosen the top yoke pinch bolts first.
