Has anyone done this? There doesn't seem to be much info online and Marzocchi don't actually have the manual on the website.
Judging by the diagram, spring swap looks easy, it's just undo top cap, pull out old and put in new having greased it.

If I want to reduce the travel on the fork from 160mm to 150mm (they come as 160 only, it looks like you have to drop the lowers off and swap the spacers round? Not overly complicated but do i need any special tools? Circlip pliers?

Yeah - that's the diagram that suggests you have to take the whole assembly out not just the spring.
