[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1401692, member: 3828"] No idea how you broke it. I’ve had the cartridges out of several FJRs and although fitting that bottom cup is a little fiddley, it seems pretty clear when it’s inserted correctly. Can’t visualize what you did wrong to break it. Not sure that the valves are the same, but I have some used stock compression valves from my old 1st Gen if you can use one of them. Sounds like you already bought some aftermarket ones, which will be a nice upgrade for you. Might as well do the rebound valves and new springs while you are in there then you’ll really be good to go. [/QUOTE]
