A trick to installing a fork seal is to lube it first with a little fork oil (I like to pack the area between the upper and lower seal lips with Teflon grease). Cut a corner off of the lower part of a plastic sandwich bag (like a triangular hat) and put the hat on top of the upper tube and slide the seal on the tube. The plastic "hat" will keep the seal lips from hanging up on the top of the tube and it should easily slide on.

Cheers.

Jon
