i dont really do endos ever since i flipped one awhile back cause it fucked up my back and shoulder bad where i still wake up in pain... you think i should still get it done? and i do miss endos sometimes, they are so sick but im scared to even try them on the 636 cause if the forks break i really dont want to go through the pain and money again

there was some one who broke there forks putting down a highchair but i can't remember who ,if you only do slow highchairs then i wouldn't sweat it but if you do fast ones also you might want to consider it

so i have the chance to buy 06 forks with 500 miles on them for 250ish, do these need the reinforcement as well? or should i just get mine sleeved and rebuilt?

how much is shipping typically?

old man roger · 03-03-2008, 08:28 PM

been a while since i read this thread but if i remember right bill ships you a box postage paid to ship your forks in .....

i may be wrong but i think thats what i remember reading

travisn · 03-03-2008, 10:14 PM

maybe ill read the original threads,

but what about the 03 04 and 05 06 difference?

travisn · 03-04-2008, 07:12 AM

ok, so whats the turn around time on this ordeal?

and no one has given a definite answer for 05-06

old man roger · 03-04-2008, 07:18 AM

the question is, what do you have done omr?

Stubbz · 03-08-2008, 11:11 AM

i think OMR has 07 forks if i'm not mistaken.

My forks are at FT right now gettin the sleeves put in. i ordered it and about a week later got a box in, i shipped mine to him last thursday i believe and the package got there on monday, hoping to get the forks back this coming week cuz i need to get my bike finished, but we'll see. overall its probly a 2 to 3 week turnaround time

I'm glad i just read this thread! I just bought my '03 with leaky forks and another set for $100 that aren't leaking. I'm considering having this done...anyone have a problem since having this job done??

apfire26 · 04-19-2008, 02:22 PM

To bad they're not offering the service anymore, I was ready to get mine done but I guess they're too buisy.

Afflicted · 04-19-2008, 02:57 PM

wait so you cant send your forks out anymore??

thats lame i guess ebay it is for some newer ones, i just havent had the money for it

apfire26 · 04-19-2008, 03:04 PM

I know, I was looking forward to only spending 300 and having the problem fixed. Plus I now have to replace my fork seals.........which I've never done before. This is gunna be fun.

JoeS5690 · 04-21-2008, 11:02 AM

fork seal jobs are not fun from what i understand. make sure you got all the right tools for that. i know my buddy doesn't even do them and he has his own shop.

y2kmk · 05-13-2008, 08:47 PM

any update on 05 06 having same problems?
