Hi there - I am looking for some assistance with my adjustable front end.
I am fitting a hack on my 59 pan, hence the adjustable triple tree.
I have searched this site but unable to find the answer = Does the cap (as per picture) just fit inside the fork leg.
The cap fits inside the spring although it is tight , is this correct?
My fork had a washer on top of the spring and a PVC tube obviously for some pre damping, the washer will not allow the end cup to fit throught - it will only sit on top.
Do I remove the washer and PVC tube and just let the end cap fit through the centre of the spring?

Re: Adjustable front end - Panhead
The washer and PVC are not standard fitment. They are usually there as a result of Progressive fork springs being used. The baffle and spring assembly are correct on all stock forks and are the air/oil separators for the fork vents, a necessary part if the seals are expected to work. What is the overall length of the springs in your forks?
