[Closed] Are my forks goosed?

My top of the range Rockshox Recons 😉 have developed play in them when you wiggle the lowers against the uppers. When I brake it vibrates like I have a very loose headset (this has been checked by the way).

Have the bushings gone and will I need complete new lowers?

Thanks

Bushings are re adjustable to take up some play, if they are quite worn they can be replaced.

My Recon Golds do this as well , I've had them just over two years so out of warranty. I think they just need a new seal and bush set fitted.
