I need a front fork spacer that is attached to the bottom of the fork. I have one but the other one broke. Pot metal crap.
Thanks.

Ahhh.
Sorry I don't have one to spare, but how do you remove them from the fork tube and refit them ?
I need to remove mine in order to get the fork tubes hard chromed.
So far everyone I've asked doesn't know how to remove them.

There should be two dowel pins holding it in place. The problem I see is I have seen some welded in place or chromed in place.
I presume that your motivation for wanting to remove them is the same as mine - to get the fork tubes re-chromed.
So, assuming you get the tubes reconditioned, and that you find a used spacer, how are you planning to refit them to the fork tubes ?

No. I have a set of new fork tubes And need those spacers. I will drill and pin them and/or weld them in.
