Fork legs

[Roger (Doomtrainbarx)]

Do all A10 fork legs come with the same thread/pitch for the seal holders.
I got some new holders and they dont spin on easily like the old ones do - almost as if the threads are slightly different.

Should all be the same - across most if not all the BSA range. Probably the chrome plating has got into the threads.

RD is right, the same thread.
I had the same problem when fitting new stainless seal holders. Even heat didn't work. Ended up spending hours with fine grinding paste working them on and off (yes I cleaned it all off before final fit). Trouble with that is it also wears the fork leg thread so original seal holders will be loose

RD may  be right about the chrome - the threads look to be shallow - I wonder if I've bought cheap n nasty holders ?

Discovered when I overhauled my A10s forks.
