750EC fork seal parts order

[Guest]

Time to order parts for a fork work over, plan is straight rate springs (Sonic) and cartridge emulators (MikeXS).

I haven’t done forks before, so I’m not exactly sure what seal parts to order. I don’t have the forks apart yet.

Do I need to order anything other than #8-1 and #11?

Are parts #6, #9, #13, #15 likely to be damaged, worn-out, or easy to damage taking apart? Any others?

You really should thoroughly disassemble and inspect the forks before proceeding any further.

Generally, part nos. 6, 9 and 15 survive quite well and shouldn't need replacement. I usually replace part no. 13 when rebuilding, simply because it's subjected to sliding motion in normal operation so it will at some point need replacement. Check part nos. 15 & 16 - in many cases they have been butchered or damaged at some point. I've even seen cases where imperial thread bolts have been forced into use (!).
