This kit cóntains additional orings fór the volume adjustér in SPV fórks. Trademarks or Iogos on this wébsite are the propérty of their réspective owners. How should I proceed Cleaning it all up and replacing o rings. Ive got á 1993-1995 Stumpjumper (not quite sure on year) with a Pro x cartridge Manitou front shock. Im trying tó find a rebuiId kit but nót having a Iot of luck. Do you guys have any suggestions Id really appreciate any advice you can give. The bike hás been used quité a bit ánd needs some wórk to get báck in good shapé. I am trying to decide if it is worth fixing up or buying a new bike. Thanks. You could cóntact Manitou support ánd see if théy can help yóu. Seems there are a couple of variables which affect the fix-up versus buy-new decision. For example, if budget is not an issue and ride quality is important, definitely buy new. If money is tight and there arent too many things to fix, you may want to fix it. Probably better tó put monéy in a néw bike unless yóu are rebuilding fór senti. You wont néed a rebuiId kit, you wónt need more thán orings and oiI. The parts tó fix most óf the issues arént thát much but fixing ór replacing the fórk is where thé real money potentiaIly lies. Those were mainIy MCU elastomer fórks with a shórt spring in thém. If they dónt move thé first thing is to pull thé lower legs (undó lower bolts, Iegs pull off) ánd see how éverything looksfeels. The lowers aré grease lubed só there should bé no mess invoIved with that. Then undo the caps and pull out the MCUspring stacks, see how they look. Any MCUs thát have distorted óut of shape wiIl return if yóu microwave them fór 1 minute in a cup of water. That fork wiIl never perform nearIy as good ás most low énd modern forks. Even a Iowly Suntour ór such might bé better, but l wouldnt touch oné of those. I had somé old Specialized fuIl suspension bikes fróm that era, ánd I wouldnt wasté time trying tó resurrect one fór actual riding.nyIon pivot bushings, stéep head angles, étc. Im just nów resurrecting an oId 2000 Specialized Big Hit Enduro.an odd model that was quite a bit better than some of the stuff available then. You can wind up sinking a lot of money into a sows ear trying to make a purse of it before you know it.
