manbearpig Posted October 15, 2013 Share Any surprises? Or is it just a case of knock out old, press in new and go? Seems like I just need Allen key and BB tool. Got torque settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennyg Posted October 15, 2013 Share You need the GXP BB tool, to loosen the base, an allen key( loosen these before loosening the base), some grease, replacement bearings and a bit of common sense, and your done. Order Enduro bearings from Rush and your sorted for the next 2-3 years. Edited October 15, 2013 by kennyg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kosmonooit Posted October 15, 2013 Share Can be done with out special tools but an Ernie would help. You should also your a headset press to press the bearings in square http://rlcsport.com.au/site/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/kt020.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymakestv Posted October 15, 2013 Share It's quite hard to get the fork separated and if you do it wrong you can definitely damage the lefty. As far as I remember you loosen the weird screw thing which you need the BB tool for and then you knock it up until it gets your stem off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the OPI you need the BB tool Ernie helps to line up the lefty before the tube, and also to extract it. Be careful on mangling the seal on the top (which you might think about replacing as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
