FAQs
What is the size range for this fork seal driver?
The Sealey Fork Seal Driver MS016 is designed to fit fork stanchions with an outer diameter ranging from 35mm to 55mm.
Can this tool be used on all types of motorcycles?
It can be used on most motorcycles with front forks within the 35mm to 55mm diameter range. Always confirm your specific fork's diameter.
How do I prevent damaging the new fork seal with this tool?
Ensure the driver is correctly sized and the seal is aligned straight on the fork leg before gently tapping the driver. Apply even pressure to seat the seal without forcing it.
Do I need any other tools for fork seal installation?
You will typically need basic hand tools to remove the forks, a seal puller (if the old seal is stuck), and potentially a flathead screwdriver for prying. You'll also need new fork seals, fork oil, and potentially new dust seals.
How should I clean and store the fork seal driver?
After each use, wipe the tool clean with a cloth to remove dirt and oil. Store it in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
What is the main benefit of using a dedicated seal driver over other methods?
A dedicated driver ensures the seal is pressed in squarely and evenly, significantly reducing the risk of tearing the seal lip or damaging the fork tube, which can lead to leaks and premature failure.
Troubleshooting
Tool does not fit fork diameter.
Ensure the adjustment mechanism is correctly set for the fork's diameter. Verify the fork diameter falls within the 35mm-55mm range specified for this tool.
Seal is difficult to seat evenly.
Apply a light coat of appropriate fork oil or grease to the seal lip and fork leg. Ensure the seal is oriented correctly before attempting to drive it in.
Difficulty adjusting the tool size.
Clean the internal adjustment surfaces of any debris. Ensure the components are aligned correctly before attempting to adjust the diameter.
