I pmed ya and didn't hear back. i am going to need some shocks and struts rebuilt are you still rebuilding shocks and struts?

I got a 84 200x rear for sure, my 82 200e fronts and maybe the fronts of the 200x depending on the costs.

Are you sure you want to rebuild the front fork of a 200e. Any other 200 fork are better then these one.

you should know how to rebuild front forks if youre running a shop...

its not hard, do a search...for the price of shipping a set, let alone 2 sets, of front forks from wherever the trailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro you are to MASS, you could do it yourself...

Once you have all the parts and you've done them once, the most time consuming part is cleaning all of the parts before it all goes back together...

it's not that, I have not located a good source for parts. when i look to palces online,s ome parets are not available or say they are but when you have them verify, they don't have them. i figured if you had a good source u wouldn't want to give it up.

the internal seals for the tubes are being said to not be available. from 2 sources.
i can get the top stuff n/p it's the piston tube that the seals are hard to locate.
