They were in sad looking shape from the outside, but Wow!, I never thought they would be this bad on the inside.

I haven't done a whole lot of fork work but this whole mess looks like it should be $hitcanned. Do you think any of it would be serviceable? The top caps maybe? Since the bottom of the tube is worn so badly, I'm thinking the inside of the leg is shot as well.

Anyone have a set they want to sell? I need to put up a wanted post I guess.
Thanks & Cheers

 

Bushings are worn, but I don't see any scratches. They're yucko filthy but I'm betting a good scrubbing and they are salvage-able. As long as the outer face of the inner tube's aren't scarred up you ought to be good. Seals are cheap enough, I think it would be worth a try, based on what I'm seeing.

Yeah, upon closer inspection, there are some bad gouges in the tube where the seal runs.

That's rust you're looking at in those pics. There's no way that cartridge would be any good.
