The small side was wrong as well . So I took a 1"axle and turned it down to 3/4'" . Looks like its gonna work just fine ! I just got finished changing the sliders and installing the cartridge kit in the tubes . I will put the forks and the brakes together tomorrow and hopefully take a test ride !!!

Hey rapid49, they got poker run out of Bomber's this Sat. the 23rd,see you there?

also, I did the front lowers/brake/wheel and rear swingarm/brake/wheel upgrade, used CCE spacer/axle kit and the Aurora teflon lined spherical bearings, man what a difference!

Yes, more like Schex, on reflection. Oddly enough I'm waiting for the 'new' sliders to come in from Canada, Alberta IIRC. Shouldn't be long now.
