I am doing a service of my RP23 but I am not sure which grease to use for the seals. I have some Pace RC7 but it seems a little thin ??

Any ideas ?

Thanks

    Float Fluid

    I use that as well, but the service manual mentions to grease the seals then leave some float fluid in the chamber as this becomes "airbourne"

    It says grease but means float fluid. :wink:

    Nope, you need to use a quality fork and pivot grease too. Mojo had some stuff from Makt when I was last there IIRC.
    I use Stendec. But RC7 is pretty similar.
    Just don't use cheap teflon or lithium grease.
    It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
