Hi guys, was riding some small dirt jumps last night on my Blender when I noticed there was some oil coming out of the top dust seal. Is it just a case of replacing the dust seals or will there be some o rings on the inside of the fork that need doing, can any one suggest a kit? fork is a 2006 Rockshock Revelation 426 duel air u turn, Oil is coming from the left side with the u turn on it, if that helps. :oops: They have been a bloody Revelation as well, apart from having to replace the positive air valve cos I threaded it, this is the first failure thay have had. And they have been hammered. +1 for Revs

Couldn't really tell from compressing the forks as it appears I have picked up a slow puncture too! what a successful ride. :roll: Going out on my other bike for an hour or so blast soonish so will check when I get back.0

Ok. Pumped the forks up and spent 45 minutes hitting a small four pack, the air pressure held up but the oil was still leaking out.0
