Front fork rebuild. What parts are needed?

[wilcoy02]

I am going to rebuild the front forks on my gl1100.

I want to put progressive springs in. Can any one tell me which springs I need ? I want to keep the air in them.

While I have the forks apart what replacement parts do I need to rebuild them? Part Numbers?

Thank You

Progressives fork springs have been around a long time. Check first before ordering, you could already have them.

AGREED! I did not know I already had them in my forks until after I already purchased new ones!

I am aware there could be progressive in there already. Fork is leaking so I will tear them apart any way. Just looking for what parts I should replace while I am there.

Fork seals and (possibly) bushings.
Be careful when you assemble, the order of assembly is important.
I managed to ruin the bushings because I put them together in wrong order (and couldn't assemble all the way).
