DJ 3 2004

Hi, i've got myself a pair of 2004 dirt jumper 3's and was wondering a few small things about them.
Firstly, what size are the lower nuts on the fork lowers....remocing these would let me service the forks
Secondly, no matter what socket size i try, none of them fit....what do i have to do...?
Thirdly...i have heard vaguely of people running these forks with just one spring to gain a better feel and lose weight. weight is not an issue but a better feel would be great.
Which side spring should i be removing?
Thanks

12mm but you need to modify the socket or buy a foot nut tool.
yes one spring and more air in the other leg."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

where can i get the foot nut tool from in the uk...do you know of anywhere...my google search hasnt come up with anything.
Which side spring should i be removing? left or right?

any marz dealer.
and it does not really matter."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

one side has a small plastic part in, the other doesn't, but from what i can find out, the damping system is the same in each side anyway

not the same try reading a manual. if you dont have it download it from Marz's webby.
damping is on one side only."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

according to the manual..2004, they have dual ssv damping rida in each leg

if it is a DJ2 then they should be both internal. ie there should just be a nut on the bottom of each leg. nothing else."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
