76 MAINTENANCE MANUAL
NOTE: The unitized seal features a rubber
inner sleeve that is designed to seal and ro-
tate with the fork. This feature allows you to
reuse a fork with minor grooves.
2. Inspect the fork seal surface for grooves
• Ifyou ndgrooves on thefork, use calibra-
tors to measure the groove diameters. If any
groove diameter measures less than the di-
mensions shown in Figure 5.97, replace the
fork.
CAUTION
DO NOT INSTALL A POSE™ SEAL AFTER
YOU INSTALL A UNITIZED PINION SEAL. THE
USE OF A POSE™ SEAL WILL PREVENT
CORRECT SEATING OF THE UNITIZED PIN-
ION SEAL ON THE FORK AND CAN RESULT
IN LUBRICANT LEAKAGE AT THE SEAL.
POSE™ SEAL INSTALLATION IS RECOM-
MENDED ONLY FOR TRIPLE-LIP AND OTHER
PREVIOUS DESIGN SEALS.
Do not use thin metal wear sleeves to refresh
the fork surface. Wear sleeves pressed in the
fork can prevent correct seating of the pinion
seal, damage the pinion seal assembly and can
cause the seal to leak.
3. Before install the fork, lightly lubricate the
sealtrackintheforkofthejointwithaxleoil.
4. Align the fork splines with the shaft splines.
Slide the fork over the shaft spline.
