I usually try to get my hands on a really battered looking hydracoil, if I want to repair a 95-97 Judy. The stanchions fit the old castings perfectly. The indides do, too. With slight modifications. You can make it look perfectly original from the outside while having a more modern, less prone to failure Judy for rather cheap. Compared to the all original alternative, that is.
Very intrigued about this process...
Fancy posting a step-by-step?
Could it be done to an earlier FSX model? Or would need to be 95-97?
I currently have an FSX that needs a service, but also has the pressed crown/steerer, which I need a longer version of.
Debating trying to source and find someone to press out and then replace, or just have someone fabricate an extension to the existing steerer.
But before I commit to either I want to figure out my plan for servicing them!
