Re: fork seals

Im pretty sure a couple race companies make some upgraded fork seals,(but there for race not stunt) however, I dont think anything will really hold up to what we do. Just go stock and get an extra set for down the road.

Re: fork seals

No they really work cause they keep all the dust and **** out that damages the seals...There gonna get fvcked up anyway if your slamming it down hard but by keeping all the dirt and stuff out they will take alot more abuse before the blow...
