Re: Anyone know the ???
That lower centering cone is hard to find. When forks were adapted to Timkens it was usually removed and thrown away. But the biggest issue was when the forks were converted the shoulder on the stem (as seen well in your picture) was removed to allow the bearing to fit. (The shoulder is too big for a 1" bearing) so the original collars no longer fit to go back to ball races.Buddhahoodvatoloco wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 11:37 pm Anyone know the ??? part number and where to score like maybe three,

What are you trying to do and why do you need them? Converting 45 forks to 1"? Trying to restore BT forks?

Thank you for your reply,
I am trying to restore some forks BT mind you.
They all have the shoulder still, thank the spirits.
