Jplayer- you're absolutely right. I'm just afraid to have folks start removing hydraulic lines when the forks are up in the air. I've learned the hard way that sometimes what you say is not what is heard.

Khans- if you decide to remove hydraulic lines- the hydraulic line that is connected by hose clamps is the return line. DO NOT- I REPEAT- DO NOT- Remove any hydraulic line that is secured by a nut that is part of the hydraulic line. All pressure type hydraulic lines have built in hex head connectors. SERIOUS injuries can happen when hydraulic lines under pressure are suddenly disconnected.
