Hi, I disassemply the front forks of 954 to replace the oil seals. But I can not drive the oil seal in, cause my seal driver seems to be used for non-Upsidedown fork. I see there's a Honda tool (in service manual), but it's sure that I cannot get one.

I wonder how the tool is, maybe it's splitted into 2 pieces. So has sb do the replacement without the tool ? pls show me, I'll give you many many thanks.

 

make one out of pvc

 

A pvc pipe with a vertical cut ?

 

show me a pic of the tool you need.

 

yeah.. a pvc pipe works... but http://www.motionpro.com/motorcycle/..._seal_drivers/is better. (you'll need the 43 mm one)

 

66 bucks? I'll take one time use PVC any day.

 

I swear to gawd I used a vacuum cleaner attatchment off ofa Dirt Devil for my fork seal driver. Worked like a charm.

 

Yes, it's something I meant. And I make a similar one. A metal 53-45 tube with a vertical cut, 2 pieces. PVC tube maybe is too weak to drive the seal in.

 

I use the fork seal driver set from race tech. Yeah it is a lot to invest in, but i do forks often. My bikes, friends, and people that are wanting to save a buck and I want to earn some spending cash. Besides it just looks better!

 

yea... what surfnscal said...
it's worth it if your doing fork seals all the time. (plus i like using the correct tool for things... )
