Well, after the mother of all wet POLARIS's and an apparently malfunctioning lockout lever (i.e. it didn't) I decided it was time to service my trust F100 forks. I have done this before and have all the proper kit - 26mm ground down socket, genuine Fox 32mm replacement wipers & all the correct gunk to fill 'em up with again.

So, bish bash bosh, all duely dismantled, drained and reassembled. But, I have a problem: the lockout still seems to be not really locking out AND worse still, the rebound knob is just continuously rotating. It is giving the usual indexed click, but just keeps on going. It used to do 14 clicks, I just lost count after 50. And it does it in *both* directions!

Pants! Is my rebound assembly truely shagged? Will I have to give in and send them to Mojo? Have I done something daft? Someone out there must have the answer, surely!?

Cheers all!

You've likely snapped the rods that run down the middle of the damper,  mate did it recently twice to be fair on that fork.

I'd order a new damper,  same price @£90 as getting them to fix it,  quicker and less hassles,  mates was fixed the 1st time so likely a fault so it'll fail again.

If it costs the same but they fix it surely the answer is to let them do it?  After all, if it goes again then there's likely a warranty claim in the offing which may not apply if the part is not fitted by an authorised service co.

I've never had more than a 72hr turn around from them either.

TFT are the dogs nads - what excellent service!

I spoke to bloke who evidently knew everything imaginable about forks who quickly diagnosed the rebound knob malfunction as a snapped rod. I sent it to them Weds, fixed Thurs, back here for the weekend.

Thoroughly recommended! Why can't all companies be like this?!

Hey I diagnosed the same,  am i the dogs nads to

What did it cost ??

Mates snapped twice in that damper cost him £80 i think for the 2nd time as outta warranty,  hence i'd of put a new damper in,  might be a bad batch and it'll snap the rod again soon.

But fixed

If I remember Mojo only offer 90 days warranty on forks that they fix.They had mine last year,seals went after 90 days but they'd hardly been used.90 days is nothing and just says they don't have much faith in their product etc.

If your forks are under warranty from when you bought them they may still be covered but tampering with them yourself will void it.Best to give Mojo a call or TFT as mentioned above.

TFT serviced Pauls forks and send it back with a blockage in the compression damper so it barely moved,  I fixed it myself also,  I DIY so thats my ownly experience of them!!

No warranty on my forks, they are rather battered '05 F100s.

And technically Mr Errrrm Yes, you too are the dogs nads for accurate diagnosis! Perhaps you should work for TFT?! Or set up your own rival business dabbling in suspension?!

Oh and I think it was £80 all in, not cheap but much cheaper than another set of forks!

Actual rod was £20 I think they said.

Mojo,  woulda sold you a new damper for £90 ( I fecked 1 in my Van R's ages back ),  for you to DIY,  if it's survived 3 years hopefully it'll last another 3 so should be fine,  mates was 6months then 9months old when his snapped.

To the originator of this thread....if you're not sure, them check for dried semen stains on the stancions.

Mojo and TF will have them, but IIRC they don't sell them on to the public.
