which of 2 gasket types for lower fork screw plug?
Re: which of 2 gasket types for lower fork screw plug?
I have the copper washers on my /5, installed by me about nine years ago. Even though they were torqued to spec they've always leaked, it's actually more like a weep. If I were to do it again I'd use a little sealant. Funny Duane, I thought I remembered them being the crush type.

as a slight hijack, could someone post the torque spec on this large nut? (at the bottom of the fork legs with the copper gasket).

thanks Bamboo. I was guessing 55 ft. lbs. so I'm close.
