    Fork tube swap

    I recently bought a dual disc setup for my 78 GS750.
    I've looked over the manuals at Bascliff's site and have an idea how to proceed.
    But I still have a few questions before I begin the installation.
    Mainly, how do my forks differ from the ones in the guides?
    Will the process be the same? Same tools needed? Special instructions?
    Where do I buy the seals, o-rings and boots specific for my model? Answered
    Can I use my old upper tubes with the new lower tubes? Answered
    My uppers are nearly spotless, more so than the new ones.

    Any other info that I might need to know?

    Thanks.

    I managed to answer a couple of my own questions.
    Maybe not the best answers, but that's what I've got.
    I suppose I can figure the rest out as I go, if necessary.

      Everything should cross over ok. All the parts can be bought in a hundred different places - just Google the part numbers and choose.
      79 GS1000S
      79 GS1000S (another one)
      80 GSX750
      80 GS550
      80 CB650 cafe racer
      75 PC50 - the one with OHV and pedals...
      75 TS100 - being ridden (suicidally) by my father
