Hi
I own a Specialized Rockhopper 08 Disc, it comes standard with Rock Shox Tora 302 SL forks (A picture of mine is attached). I have recently noticed that the forks do not seam quite so smooth any more, I have also noticed that oil has started to seep out from the lower leg where the rebound is adjusted and believe they will need a service. I plan to service them myself..
I don't plan to do a full service, just remove the lower legs, clean them out, replace the seals and give it some fresh oil.
For this job please could you tell me everything I am going to need, (including all the small things like crush washers)?
I would also like to know how much and what fork oil to pour into each lower leg.
Also what do I lubricate the new dust wipers in?
And what torque specification do I tighten the lower leg bolts to?
Thanks to you all
