TY250 Mono Front fork damper rod removal

Hi,

I have a TY250 mono and have stripped the front fork legs to clean and rechrome or replace the chrome stanchions as they are badly pitted.

Having taken the forks apart the internal damper rod is still firmly embedded in the bottom of the chrome tube, with no obvious means of removal. The internal damper tube (the bit with the holes drilled in to allow oil to pass) moves in and out freely, but once it is fully inserted into the chrome tube it feels solid.

Presumably from what I have read the internal damper rod should come out through the top of the tube but I cannot see how to release it. what am I missing here? I will post photos tonight but the page in the manual shows the damper rod I am referring to as Part 9.28 and the chrome tube as 8.27. The aluminium tapered end/stop on the damper rod (10.29) is still in place - does that have to be removed first? How?

 

TY Mono Section 19

Thanks in advance for any advice.

If the parts are clean, smooth and lubed the aluminium part will slide off the damper rod under it's own weight.

No thread, no need for anything. It is held there between the damper rod and the slider by the screw that holds the slider on.
