After one for my 2002 MXC comp air fork. Any idea of the size or kit number?
Guessing I need new oil seals.

Forks haven't been used in a few years and a letting oil out upon compression. Guess the seals must be changed shape or maybe because there is no air in there this has caused it. Added air but still doing it.

Thanks

Not really but just measure the diameter (30mm I think) and Google it.

will do soon. Wasn't sure of the kit number though which would be useful.not to worry I'll measure them and don't need a part number. Be good to know where I can get some other than ebay.

Give windwave a shout. They were flogging old kit recently. Hell at least know what you need.

Think pretty much all the 30mm zocchis are the same. It's a two part seal set in each leg with a lower oil seal and upper wiper seal. Nice and easy to change normally.

Easy to change but make a noteof the oorientation of the oil seals. I once didn't and ended up with very plush bur very messy forks!

Windwave were very good with old marzocchi kit but with them losing the distribution I can see there being problems in the future.
