84 GS1150 Front Forks

[Guest]

Ok, front seals were leaking bad, so as I had another 1150 parked in the corner with totally rebuilt front forks and anti-dives that actually work, off came the fork tube assemblies for a quick check over and install into DBB. I didn't want to disturb the triple tree, so we just removed the fork tubes.
The fork tubes are in the triple tree, middle pinch blots just snug so they don't slide out, and the air couplers are installed up top as per the manual.
My question is, is there a specific order in which to tighten the fork tubes so that when it comes time to install the front axle, the wheel runs true. (Top first, partial torque, then middle, etc) I remember reading somewhere that when changing the front tire, it's a good idea to loosen the fork bolts, install the tire/wheel assy, then re-torque the fork tubes to ensure the forks are "twisted".
Should I install the other side, and install the front wheel before torqueing any of the pinch bolts on the tubes?
Am I dreaming/wasting my time? The service manual is vague about reinstalling the fork tubes, and I thought I might call on the vast knowledge of the forum.
I did so some searching before this post, and didn't find anything regarding this.

Thanks,

Jason

It doesn't matter, the sliders will spin so the the axle lines up. No need to re-torque.

Well if there is a fork brace involved I think you might want to do some more. I removed the top caps from my forks to pull the springs. That way you can run the forks easily all the way up and down as you are tightening to make sure there is no binding.
I do remember having a theory about order of tightening but can't remember it now. I'm blanking.
