| I just ordered my Hyperpro springs ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif) Do i have to replace also the fork seals if i don't have any leaks? I think i can do easyly the replacement of the spring and oil but i don't have the tool to install a new seal. If i want to change the seal i need a garage that will do the job for me (of course i will remove the fork by myself to reduce the costs and have a little bit fun with maintenance ![Wink](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif) )

| You won't need to change the seals to install the fork springs. It's a fairly simple job.

| The hardest part of spring replacement is compressing the new (stiffer) spring while getting the tube cap started. |

VERY true!!! I like to get the fork leg in a vice and then put the fork cap in a T-bar socket to allow a constant yet steady downward pressure without taking too much skin off my knuckles.... |

| Just look at these tips and free advice. They are all being logged and remembered when/if I get round to modding the 'Wing'. I love this site. |
