I am currently replacing fork seals and adding the Pre-load adjustable caps from Economy. When I opened them up I found that the previous owner set his preload by adding longer spacers (#18 in the image) The problem is they are currently too long to be used with the Pre-load adjustable caps as there is no chance that I can compress the spring enough to screw the cap back on.
Does anyone know off hand what the stock spacer length is, and if there would be a better length that i should keep them at to add a little extra stiffness with the adjustable caps?
Thanks
