Pace Suspension forks - Which ones?

I've had a pair of RC35 AB's on my 94 prestige since new. Work wonderfully.

MXC's and MXCD's are a little later in the timeline to be fully accurate from a retro perspective.
 
currently own 1 x RC35's and 2 x RC38 Airforce Mk 1's, Forks are currently fitted onto my ever growing fleet of Orange's and i must say work very well together, very impressed with support from Tim (Fork English) justbackdated.

As long as you look after them and keep them serviced they will continue to provide many miles of retrobiking :)

Both bikes have 1" threaded steerer.

I had the same woes as you when I decided to use a more modern pace fork on a slightly older frame. All is Ok and I actually like the ride setup with 80 - 100mm travel.

Thought MXCD's came out in 94 with the RC36's following in 96 :?

Not according to goatsurfer
http://www.goatsurfer.com/pace_forks.html

Which kinda tally's with my admittedly dodgy memory.

I'm almost certain I bought my prestige frame and rc35's new in 94 although it just possibly might have been 93. Frame no is 3011886 if any of the guru's are reading. Afaik paces and oranges model years were fairly well sync'd
 
OK guys who can answer these questions?

1: Which Pace forks come with disc mounting tabs?

2: What type of tab is it? (post mount or IS)

3: Do all Pace sus forks have removable steerers (i need a fork that can accept a 1" steerer)

I have looked at the Pace Timeline page loads but as with all manufacturers, Pace do seem to have various incarnations of models, some have disc tabs, some dont, and I have been x-referencing this timeline against actual for sale items and i'm non the wiser.

Wako
