[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1139419, member: 3828"] I replied to the OP's [I]first[/I] posted thread. Looks like this one has the most replies, so I'll cross post my reply here: Put the spring, spacer, nut and cap back on the top of the fork leg and dial in the maximum spring preload when you try to remove the bottom damper bolt. The spring's downward pressure will help keep the cartridge from spinning. You should be able to do it with a regular allen socket, or continue using your impact gun. [/QUOTE]
