Leaky forks after shipping

Tjpiattelli
Hey guys,

Would greatly appreciate some help. Just sent my suspension for a re spring and a revalve, and when I opened the gun case I shipped it in the forks are covered in oil. The silly fucker left my air bleeds open. I'm having a hard time getting help from him. And not spending 225 to ship again just for him to fix it. He did tell me there is 150mls in the top. So should I just pull my air bleeds dump the oil out of the top then either add 150mls of new oil or measure what came out and just add the difference. Thanks in advance. Pretty upset.

$225 to ship? Of those two options I think I'd drain all you can and replace the full amount.

Yeah man. 150 Canada post there 70 greyhound back. And is that how I do it? I just remove the air bleed screw and dump it out?

Yea drain it and refill. Its not a hard process. Id stay away from whoever did your forks. A mistake like that is unacceptable.

Couldn't agree more acid dreamer. So just remove the air bleed dump out and re add 150mls. Is that the correct way by just turning upside down with no air bleed screw in?
