[QUOTE="RZ350, post: 1401704, member: 13475"] Thanks for the offer Fred, I will keep it in mind. Its a bit baffling to me too. Here are some close up pictures to explain it better. The valve snapped at the necked down portion, of course. [IMG]https://farm1.staticflickr.com/928/42719236035_b19830d9b1_z.jpg[/IMG] This picture shows the broken valve end held in place by the screw. [IMG]https://farm1.staticflickr.com/845/42719235845_57637de750_b.jpg[/IMG] The following exploded view suggests that item 16 goes onto the cartridge and then the cartridge goes into the inner fork tube (which I did). [IMG]https://farm1.staticflickr.com/859/42719235635_de9a69a5cd_z.jpg[/IMG] But then this assembly instruction shows item 2 going in on after the cartridge is slid through the bottom of the inner fork tube. [IMG]https://farm1.staticflickr.com/915/42719235485_c2ac9c4990_b.jpg[/IMG] It seems as though the small cap should fit through the opening in the bottom of the inner fork tube, but I haven't checked it yet. The other fork tube that is completely together is compressing okay, it seems [/QUOTE]
